Perfect!

We recently started a brewery and bbq joint.I had a BBQ food truck for years.I needed a unit that didn't need its own chimney and could be put under a vent hood. This unit was the answer. Works great,a little small for the money but does its job perfectly.The only thing that needs improvement is the door seal,it has none so the door leaks heavily.Overall it's a pretty hood smoker you don't have to babysit.

The Best Smoker on the Market

I own a catering company and have been in the BBQ business for 12 years. I have owned every kind of smoker you can imagine, and this is the best. I installed 2 of these units when I had my new trailer built a year ago and will have a third installed this summer. The flavor is unbeatable, they are the most economical units I have ever used, only 6 to 8 ounces of wood per load. My customers rave about the flavor and quality of the meats that come out of these units. It does\'nt matter if its pork butts, prime rib, ribs, or fish the smoke flavor and quality of the product is unbeatable. My old pellet smokers are in my shop gathering dust! I highly recomend this product to all my friends, customers, and even my competition.

Expert Review

The Skinny:

  • Old-fashioned BBQ cooking gives food a wood-smoked taste
  • Easy-to-use function lets anyone become a smoking master
  • ANSI/NSF-4 certified and ETL-rated for commercial use

Things We Love:

Smoking Made Easy

Doesn’t Smokin Tex just sound like a company that knows its way around BBQ? We thought so too, and the Smokin Tex 1500-C Electric Smoker lived up to our expectations. This model is designed for a simple smoking experience that allows you to spend more time enjoying the company of friends and family without having to constantly supervise your food.

Just plug it in, place your wood inside the smoker, arrange your food on the racks, shut the door, and set the temperature. The Smokin Tex 1500-C will take care of the rest, steadily maintaining temperatures between 100 and 250°F to create authentic, wood-smoked BBQ flavors! Plus, as this unit is mobile, you can smoke in whatever outdoor space can safely accommodate it. And with a three-year warranty, you can do so with peace of mind for all the many cookouts to come.

Superior Construction

When we say this Smokin Tex model is built like a tank, we mean it. It features durable stainless steel throughout to weather the elements, plus double-walled insulation that both traps heat and makes the exterior cool to the touch while in use. This design helps create a no-draft cooking environment for moist and tender results that’ll leave your guests coming back for more.

Depending on how much food you load into the smoker, you can use one or both of the 700-watt heating elements. For even more flexibility, the Smokin Tex 1500-C comes with five 18-inch-by-18-inch cooking shelves that can be placed in any of the eight available positions and accommodate up to 80 pounds of food. And if you want some surf with your turf, try the similarly sized seafood grill to expand your menu with deliciously smoked fish. Even cleanup is a breeze thanks to the stainless steel drip pan and dishwasher-safe cooking racks.

Commercial-grade for Use in Restaurants

We can’t guarantee the Smokin Tex 1500-C will make you a professional chef, but we do know the pros have used it to prepare expertly smoked foods. This model is built to withstand frequent use and rough handling, while its heavy-duty caster wheels make it a perfect choice for restaurants. With an ETL rating for commercial applications and an ANSI/NSF-4 certification, you can be confident this Smokin Tex electric smoker has the power and construction to meet even the toughest demands.

Things To Consider:

While this smoker doesn’t have some of the bells and whistles found on modern, high-tech smokers, it’s among the most durable and functional models on the market today. There are, however, many optional accessories available, like a well-fitting cover, cold smoke plate, and a deflector plate.

Keep in mind that you’ll need a 1,400-watt, 12-amp, 120-volt power source to operate this unit. If you have any other questions about the Smokin Tex 1500-C electric smoker, call one of our BBQ experts at 1-855-901-2050 today!

Question:
In one of the reviews on this site a customer complained about the door seals not being adequate and losing a lot of smoke has that been fixed?Was This Helpful?

Hi, Denny. The only reason for excessive smoke coming through the door opening would be if the wood used was damp.

Question:
Could the 1500C be safely installed in a food trailer if properly vented?Was This Helpful?
Answers:

Hi Terry, these units do have a ventilation hole on the top of the unit that you could run a line of ducting of some kind to route the smoke to the exterior, but you'll still have to consider the smoke escape when opening the door. It would be most advisable to talk to a local contractor to ensure you can properly vent the unit.

Asked by Terry | Answered by Terry
Question:
What are the power requirements of your smokersWas This Helpful?
Answers:

Hi Chris, this smoker uses 120V AC power. It can be plugged into a standard, 3-prong outlet that is protected by a breaker or fuse rated at 15-20 amperes.

Question:
Does your Smokin Tex 1500-C Smoker need a vent running outside if ran indoors in my restaurant and or does it require an overhead hood in the state of Minnesota?Was This Helpful?

When will my item arrive?

Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we've all come to expect for small parcels, so it's important that you're prepared and understand what's required of you well before delivery day.

  • Most freight products ship on a pallet
  • Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
  • We'll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.

For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:

Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can't be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we've only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.

For carriers that deliver without an appointment:

Carriers that deliver without an appointment don't require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren't required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you're home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you're out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.

This item leaves our warehouse within 3-5 Business Days

$6.95 Flat-Rate Shipping

Anything under $49 ships at one low price. If your order increases, your shipping stays the same!

30-Day Returns

Return all new, unused, and unassembled items in their original packaging, and we'll give you a full refund minus the cost of the original AND return shipping.

No Restocking Fee

Most companies charge a restocking fee. We just don't do business that way.
