This smoker and grill features two chrome-plated steel grills for a 50-lb cooking capacity and a separate heat indicator for monitoring temperature. It has a separate base pan for easy setup and two wooden handles. Also, there's a porcelain coated steel water pan, an aluminized steel charcoal pan and a vinyl cover (which is included).

Since this smoker will deliver about the same temperature on both grill levels, it's recommended that you put the fastest cooking food on the top grate so it's easier to remove when it's done.

The nice thing about entry level smokers isn't that they are competition ready. It's that they let people who would never spend the money on a high end smoker get a chance to taste the difference between grilled meat and smoked meat. Trust me, if you don't know the difference, you need to give it a try. You'll never go back.

The Brinkmann Gourmet is a great unit to take this leap since it's relatively inexpensive and can also grill. The downside for many people these days is the charcoal. Well, you don't know what you're missing, but there is an electric version of this cooker as well, so you've got options!

Summary

The Brinkmann Gourmet Charcoal Smoker / Grill is a pretty good investment for a family that wants to start learning about true barbecue. As I mentioned earlier, it's a great way to learn about smoking food for those who have yet to try it.

Yes, the process is longer than quick grilling, but when you don't have the time, you can grill your food as well with a simple reconfiguration.
