WESTON BRANDS 2-in-1 XL Programmable Slow Cooker Electric Indoor Smoker 10 Quart With 3-Tier Smoking Rack for Meat

Awesome! I bought a second one for smoking mammal meat for the hubby! It smokes just a bit at the beginning and then no smoke escaping. I cannot say enough good things about this smoker! It was a bit hard to understand how to start it at first, but duh, I should have turned the page...lol. I love that you don't have to change the pot and cook it in something else to finish. It will also keep it warm and let the juices settle in the meat. The size is great for a 6 pound chicken or a roast. I find it easy to clean and storing does not take up much room either. The seal on the lid shows a great quality in building it. I think it is a must have and I am looking forward to using it many times. Read more

Love this smoker. Wanted something smaller, not a huge smoker. Lightweight and easy to clean. Spray cover with cooking spray for easy clean up. Will smoke a whole rack of baby back ribs. Great smoke flavor. You can use it indoors, but it emits more smoke than we'd like, so I set it on a table on the back patio. Will definitely use this a lot. Great price too... Read more

The media could not be loaded. Hope this is a helpful review. Used it 2 times for smoking now with no issues. Pros: it works, and is mostly easy to cleanup. The temperature probe works great. And the pot is big enough for what we need. Cons: This thing does leak smoke, it even says it in the instruction booklet. It doesn't leak an absurd amount but it does leak. I wish the wood tray was easier to clean, you pretty much to turn it upside down to get the ashes out. The wire racks could be just hair taller. When placed in the pot, the bottom rack touches the smoker element lid and causes a little disbalance. Overall it has a lot of value for its price, but could have some improvements. Read more

I bought this as a smoker for sausage-making, so I'll leave the slow-cooker part to other reviewers. The smoker coil works very fast to fill the chamber, and the triple-stacked racks provide plenty of surface for your food. I did a hot applewood smoke for some fresh-ground bratwurst links, and they turned out perfect. You may have to make some adjustments to your timings because the maximum temperature is 200F. The probe was a little tricky to arrange through the hole and into one of the links, but once I got it placed the reading was fine. It didn't vent a huge amount of smoke into the air during operation but there was definitely seepage around the lid. It made the kitchen smell great, and it wasn't enough to be overpowering (or set off the nearby smoke alarm). Cleanup afterward? That got 1 star because 0 isn't an option. Well let's just say it's not easy. First, the power cable isn't detachable so it's in the way while you clean and the chamber has integrated electronics so it can't be immersed; the best you can do is surface clean it. Then there's the sticky mess of drippings to mop up from the bottom, which can also get into the wood-holder. The racks need a pretty good scrubbing afterward to remove both food and smoke residue. The interior of the chamber is fairly non-stick but the wood holder is not. It's filled with basically charcoal when done, and the best I could manage was to wipe up the drippings, then remove the wood holder parts and just shake the chamber out over the trash. Then, more wiping it out. The lid got clean enough, but the rubber seal was sticky and difficult to clean from greasy smoke. Overall I'm pleased with it after one use. The cleanup hassle might lead me to using it less often than I would otherwise, but this device will definitely be a part of my sausage-making going forward. Read more

So I haven't written a review in a while, but this product was something I was on the fence about and I was so pleased with it I figured it was worth a review. A couple thoughts: -Is this as good as a 500$ indoor smoker? I honestly have no idea, i wouldn't spend 500$ on an indoor or outdoor smoker which is why i got this one. But is this an awesome 120$ smoker? absolutely yes -Use this under or over your stove hood and turn on the hood fan! otherwise you will low key smoke your whole house, if you really like hickory smell, sure that's great, otherwise the seals on this work fairly well, but smoke does escape but if you put this around a hood fan you'll be fine. -Minor complaint, the temp and timing functions are very basic, with a probe you cook to a temp, without a probe you cook to a time, its a bit confusing and the panel isn't intuitive, but once you kinda figure it out, you'll be ok. -It smokes really well! We've done salmon, cheese, poultry, and pork, all of its smokes great. we get the pellet sampler packs and have had great success -Its not super easy to clean since the heater element is just in the bottom. so make sure you put some foil in the bottom to catch drippings. -Again the seal on the lid isn't perfect, this isn't a fancy smoker that has some sort of air circulation system, the smoke will escape so see point 2 again. Overall really happy with this purchase. Was on the fence about it, but if you are also on the fence this is a really budget friendly way to get into smoking without going outside. Read more
