30" Electric Smoker
Model 30168E
• Porcelain coated steel water pan
• High temperature painted steel wood chip box with lid
• Removeable grease collection cup
• Temperature gauge
• Two side handles
• Phenolic door handle with "Sure-Lock" latch system
It was a gift that my father received for his birthday and I have borrowed it to see how well it works. It is the least expensive model made by Smoke Hollow. However, the $200 investment was not worth it. Here are the reasons why:
1. Its a smaller size, only 16 x 14 on the inside.
2. Doesn't hold temperature well, regardless of outside weather/temperature.
3. The juices of the meat leak through the seams of smoker, staining whatever it is standing on.
4. The wood chip box is inside the smoker and therefore you lose heat/smoke ever time you have to refill the chips and water.
5. The handle falls off after opening it 2-3 times.
Positive things:
1. Light weight.
2. Easy assembly.
3. Temperature gauge is fairly accurate but no way to measure meat temperature unless a separate temp probe is used.
