 "no exhaust damper" 2009-08-29
By John A. Wetmore (STATEN ISLAND, NEW YORK United States)
I was unable to keep a constant temp because there is no damper on the lid. I had to use a stick to keep the lid open slightly. Took forever to cook ribs and chicken and they came out slightly dry because of no convection without the damper. Barrel section was dented also. Very cheap design, I would not recommend this item when there is so many better ones for a quarter of the price.

By M. Gordner (Allentown, Pa USA)
Overall the body of the smoker is structurally stable. However, when I was putting it together, I noticed the barrel was bent slightly and affects proper application of the lid. It is a very simple product to use, but requires attention to ensure the temperature remains stable.

 "Great product" 2008-06-23

Excellent product - this our second smoker - the first provided service for us for 15 years!

 "Fit & finish is terrible" 2008-06-11
By M. COCHRANE (Calif.)
If you're going to put out such a poor quality product it would be better if you just passed. Materials are as cheap as you can get. Top of smoker does not fit securely. No integrity to retain smoke in smoker.



The workmanship on this product is just awful. Really sucks!

 "Good for the money. Needs better packaging" 2006-09-30
By M. Damberg (Seattle, WA USA)
I've used this as a grill and a smoker so far. It's okay as a grill. It works great as a charcoal smoker. I did a rack of spare ribs and they turned out tender with great flavor. Best ribs I've ever made. The only complaint is in how it arrived. The smoker body came out of the box slightly flattened on the sides even though there was no visible damage on the box. I used a rubber mallet to tap the body back into a circular shape before assembly, and everything fit together after that. If Amazon or Meco beefed up the box for shipping I would have no complaints. Otherwise, the smoker itself is a great value.

 "Enjoyed every weekend since I bought it!" 2009-09-28
By Timothy A. Calligan
Great lil smoker. Only downside is temp gauge. It would be better if it was numeric.

 "Budget Smoker" 2007-07-31
By Meat Lover (Maumee Ohio)
After several hours of searching and reading reviews of many different budget smokers I bought the Meco 5031. Easy enough to assemble. Kinda cheaply made, but it is a budget unit. I did check out the competition (under a $100) at the Big Box stores and they were cheaply made also. You get what you pay for! I have used this smoker once and it did a fairly good job. The Pulled Pork tasted great,was tender and moist. I did find it difficult to regulate the heat with the vents in the lid of the unit. Could best control in side heat by adding small chunks of lump coal at a time and leaving the top vents wide open. Hopefully with more practice I'll get this part down better. So, if your on a very tight budget this will get the job done with a little bit of babysitting. If your budget will allow, and you like quality built items,maybe spend the $200 to $300 for a better unit.

 "Best smoker on the market...." 2007-05-13
By Jimmy Porter (Clarksville,Fl)
The Meco smoker has really won our family, this is the second one we have purchased. We have tried other smokers but none other is as consistent with preparing food quality, it is always cooked evenly and throughly. The price is pretty amazing also, we got a extra 30 dollars off for registering with Amazon Visa, so we got it for 46 instead of 76. I do highly recommend this product...if you, enjoy great food!

 "My son loves his smoker!" 2007-01-12
By C Hale (Austin, Texas)
Bought this smoker for my son for Christmas. First of all, it arrived about a week before I expected it, which was great. My son has already used it 3 times since Christmas and is just delighted with the results. He says it cooks faster than he expected, but the flavor and juiciness of the meat is terrific. The size is fine too - he has cooked ribs and sausage for 6, and also a whole large chicken. He has already recommended this smoker to a couple of his friends!

 "But it works..." 2006-03-11
By R. Morford
If I had been able to see one of these smokers in the store I would not have bought it. It seems poorly made and doesn't fit together very well. But since I bought it and went to the trouble of putting it together, we gave it a try. It works! We've used it every weekend since we got it - ham, chicken, sausage - everything is great. I don't know how long this thing is going to last, but I'm going to use it until it falls apart - then buy something else.

 "Perfect portable smoker for camping" 2009-04-19
By Motor Home Driver (Emery, SD)
Smoking meat is about finding a way to cook in smoke all day at about 200 degrees. You either tediously tend a fire or find an automatic smoker like the Bradley models. Bradley has been around for a long time and their smokers work great.



The "perfect" weekend smoker for home would be one of their digital smokers like Bradley Digital 4- Rack Smoker. It is reasonably compact and well made. It uses 120 volt electricity to turn the wood bisquettes into smoke.



But, it is hard to take your smoker with you. For camping weekends, the Propane Smoker is "perfect". Instead of using 120 volt electricity it uses a 1 pound can of propane and 4 AA batteries. The system of a rack and foil tent is very clever. The finished food is wonderful. You will make lots of friends because the all day aroma will bring visitors!



Pros:

- stores in a compact bag

- well made components

- it iseasy to control the cooking temperature

- you can throw away the tent so it does not stink on the way home

- all the dirty parts can be transported home in a garbage bag for cleaning in the dishwasher.

- it is a lot of fun to use on a camping trip



Cons:

- a challenge to use if it is windy

- you have to buy tents

- you have to buy propane cans

- you have to buy Bradley bisquettes like Bradley Smoker Bisquettes, 48 Pack (Choose Flavor)

- if you store it in an RV, you have to keep it clean or it smells



Hints:

- focus on cheap ribs, brisket and pork shoulder

- dry rub the meat at home before the camping trip and double bag it in plastic

- poke a cooking thermometer throgh the tent for temperature control

- if you want to clean the parts "in the field" soak them overnight in a Rubbermaid tube with a strong dose of ammonia cleaner.



If you like to cook meat when you go camping this is a toy you will have a lot of fun with. Your friends and family will love you for it.

 "Nice Little Smoker" 2008-04-21
By Reardon Smith (Houston, TX USA)
The main advantage of this smoker is it's small size, which is just right for the two of us. It comes apart and all the smoker enclosure racks etc go in the dishwasher, so clean-up is very easy. It is designed to be transported in a hold-all, though we haven't done that - we just carry it from and to the garden shed for storage. The smoker "bag" that is the cover for the enclosure definitely has a finite life, and it would have been good if they included a few more than the one extra in the box. The only problem I have encountered is that here in Texas, where the outside air is usually pretty warm, it is hard to get the internal smoker temperature down low enough for a long cooking time. Even on the lowest setting the cooking flame heats the smoker to 250 to 300 degrees. The smoker flame isn't enough on its own, so you end up turning the oven flame on and off for those really low temperature foods like fish. I let it get up to its full (minimum) temperature and then turn it off and just let it smoke for the rest of the time. Seems to work very well. It is a nice smoker for those of us that are just occasional fans of smoked foods.

 "No door, no good" 2009-03-15
By Nicholas Doniger (CT, USA)
Took me wayyy longer than it should to cook one slab of ribs, since I kept having to take them out, take the grill out, take the water pan out (which resulted in disaster on my first try), and re-light charcoal. Do not buy a smoker without a door on the side for adding more coals or wood. I could not keep the temp up at all. I used the minion method to get coals lit, and I'm pretty sure I did it all properly. I got so frustrated by the end that I just finished cooking my ribs in the oven. I've never had buyer's remorse so bad before.

 "Good Grill, bad delivery" 2005-09-21
By E. Stubblefield (Austin, TX)
The grill itself is solid and a good size. It just arrived with no instructions or photos for assembly and I have a ton of leftover screws without any other holes and am not sure if its assembeld correctly. The grill itself is good, the packaging left alot to be desired.
