Backwoods Smoker G3 Chubby Vertical Insulated Charcoal Smoker – The Backwoods G3 Chubby vertical charcoal smoker brings competition quality BBQ to your backyard! With six (6) stainless steel cooking racks, the G3 Chubby has a total 1,408 square inches of cooking area. A heat diverter plate keeps the heat indirect, which allows for low and slow smoking at temperatures approximately between 180 and 300 degrees Fahrenheit. The stainless steel water pan can be used to keep food moist while cooking, or it can be removed to use the G3 Chubby as an effective grill. The charcoal tray can hold up to approximately 10 pounds of charcoal at a time. As the charcoal burns, ash falls into a removable ash tray for easy cleanup. Between the stainless steel interior and the powder coated steel exterior is a 1-inch layer of insulation, which assures better fuel efficiency and temperature control. Both the firebox and the cooking compartment have slam latch doors, keeping them tightly closed so heat and smoke are not lost. A thermometer on the cooking compartment door lets you keep an eye on the internal ambient temperature. Weighing only 150 pounds, two people can easily lift and move the G3 Chubby using the convenient side handles. This smoker is perfect for the backyard chef, or the competition cook.
