Hey Everyone, was at my local WalMart the yesterday and noticed the Brinkmann Smoke'N Grill Charcoal Smoker which retails for around $60 for only $28.88. I have worked on trying to do smoked ribs and steak on my gas grill but this should work way better and its small size will allow me to stash it away when not in use. Enjoy...

If that copy and paste still does not work google the part number 810-5301-W

Also there is a store finder function to see if your local store has any...it was correct for mine.

The weber bullet is a lot better built unit, including heavier metal which would make for much easier temp control. Especially for slow smoking. However, I agree...$25 is a great deal. Particularly if you just wanted to try it.

This is a site dedicated to the Weber (but not by weber). But of the same techniques can be used on the Brinkman. Of course all the receipts can and you could experiment with the modifications and charcoal lighting.
