Pit Barrel Cooker Co. Reviews 1,715

Made in the USA, ultra high quality, simple to use, great results every time and great customer service! Company owned by a US Veteran as well to boot! Just follow the simple lighting instructions, get a wireless temperature probe to track the internal temp of the meat, and you are in business. Also works great as a traditional charcoal grill. I recommend getting the extra grill grate that allows you to hang food on the hooks as well as sit beans, etc on the grate to cook it all at the same time.
I love the PBC, get one now!!

I bought a Pit Barrel cooker and the charcoal chimney. Both are excellent quality. Recommended

Pit Barrel is the best 'all round' unit for BBQ and smoking.
Compact, easy to use. Excellent results!

I have used my PBC 3 times now. Each result was perfection. I spent about 8 months contemplating a new smoker and after watching and reading reviews and recipes and hearing of the results from the PBC the choice was clear. It was always my front runner, but because of it's cultish following, other people would always push me towards a Weber or pellet. But I have never been one to do what others do...I make my own choices.

First day out of the box (arrived Saturday) I was cooking for a Super Bowl party (4 slabs of baby backs, 4 pork tenderloins, 7 lb. shoulder and 10 sausages). The food was incredible and I didn't have to start cooking the night before like I had to do with previous smokers.

Had it for week now and have used it almost every day

Product was ordered and shipped next day. Had within 3 days from date ordered. Work excellent. Way better than s hooks I originally had. Highly recommend this product. Great price for them and free shipping.

Great products, great prices and free shipping!

Super easy to use, makes great food. A very cool smoker!!! Pit Barrel Smoker web site also a great help with everything you need to know and how to cook your food the best way.

Simple set-up and simple to use. Just follow the instructions. I love it.

Being from North Carolina I have done my fair share of smoking and barbecuing and by far this cooker ROCKS!

I am quite amazed at how simple this barrel smoker starts up and maintains heat and flavor.
Just set it up and go about your business till you reach internal meat temperature, simple as that.

Great company, will do business with again! Fast shipping.

Great construction, great packing, fast shipping.
Perfect pulled pork on the first cook!

Read a lot about this cooker, and researched it thoroughly - it did not disappoint!! Out of the box, I was smoking ribs in 30 minutes - really simply, and requires very little attention. Video recipes are great, and the included rubs are delicious. Highly recommend this for anyone!

Purchased our unit in the winter time of the northern US. The unit cooks/smokes very well even with temperatures in the low teens, just need to make sure you follow the instructions. I would and have recomended this unit to friends and family alike. I don't think I can say anything stronger about this unit aside from."I've got food cooking on it right now." Thank you PBC for such a great addition to our dining delights.

I've never been one to spend much on my outdoor cooking equipment. I'd been eyeing the PBC for over a year and finally took the plunge last week. Holy cow. I had no idea what I had been missing. This is easier than grilling and tastes better than anything I've ever cooked on any grill. Highly recommend.

Everything about this cooker is great.

This is my first smoker and the ease of setup and smoking was fantastic. All I did was set the air intake at the bottom of the barrel to my location. The rest was following recipes on the Pitt barrel web site. I did brace smoking some tuna on the Pit barrel and it came out great !!

I highly recommend this cooker , it's even portable !

So far, I've made ribs and chicken. I could not be happier with how the PBC works right out of the box.
