    Absolutely Incredible!!!

    First cook on the Pit Barrel Cooker. Best chicken and ribs of my life. Hung over charcoal and smoked with a blend of hickory and cherrywood chips.

    I’ve never smoked a single piece of meat in my entire life, but this thing made it stupid easy. This is insane. The food was so good it didn’t taste real. Like, it was so good, that it shouldn’t be possible for me to make food that good at home by myself. And I’m a pretty good cook normally. I've never smoked anything before, so I'm just blown away by how good everything turned out.

    Love my pit barrel

    i purchased the classic pit barrel about 8 yrs ago and love this cooker. i've smoked many of different kinds of meats throughout the years and it always comes out beautiful. my ribs take about 3 hours and come out perfect. you can't beat this for the price you'll love it and it will last you for a longtime.

    Still going strong

    This thing is a tank , looked up my account info and I first ordered the 18.5” in 2015 ! It’s still going strong , the porcelain enamel keeps it looking clean and consistently turns out great food with the concept of set it and forget it . Throw some ribs on 5 hours , chicken 3-1/2 hours , sausage 1 hour . Grill or smoke easy peasy , Passed the torch to my 15 year old son and he’s getting the “hang “ of it !
