Brinkmann 810-5000-0 All-In-One Outdoor Cooker, Black

From Brinkmann

Designed for the highly versatile outdoor chef, the Brinkmann All-in-One cooker delivers five distinct uses in one minimally bulky unit. By removing or rearranging the All-in-One’s separate components, you can fry, grill, or smoke with gas, or grill or smoke with charcoal. Constructed with an all-welded frame, the unit features a raised rim for extra stability and sturdy U-shaped legs. Switching between cooking methods is simple and straightforward. For gas frying, the cooker uses the standalone base with a flat pan, a stable enough construction to hold the large pots used to cook turkeys and lobster. For gas grilling, it features a vented, aluminized base pan that holds the included lava rocks securely above the LP gas burner. Replace the lava rocks with charcoal, and voila, you now have a charcoal grill. In its charcoal grill configuration, the All-in-One can be removed from its standing legs for camping, tailgate parties, or picnics. As a smoker, powered by charcoal or by gas, the cooker uses two racks to hold up to 50 pounds of food and a water/marinade pan to generate steam.

we ordered this as Christmas gift on a monday, it came in on thursday with all of the parts and no damage to the box.

I’ve been through two prior Brinkmann smokers, a Gourmet Electric (converted to charcoal) and an El Cheapo Brinkmann (“ECB”). The bottom of the Gourmet rotted out quickly, and each would wander the neighborhood when things got windy. Not entirely a waste of money, because I learned about Brinkmann designs, and how tedious and distracting it is to smoke things with charcoal. With the ECB, I experienced the shock of seeing large flames consume most of the paint, like one other reviewer said. The smokers have thin metal, so they do not retain heat anything like a Weber.
