So far I've cooked two brislets and ribs. All came out perfect.
Overall well made. Love the porcelain coating. Still learning different cooking modes but the first thing I cooked was 3 racks of pork ribs. Out of this world and really cool how nothing burns.
Absolutely love it. Easy to use with exceptional flavor.
When we received our pit barrel smoker, it was damaged so I called the company to just let them know they may want to change the way they ship. It wasn't horrible damage just frustrating. They offered to send us another one free of charge and when I told them that wasn't necessary, they compensated us with free products. Would definitely recommend.
After reading and reading good reviews about the pit barrel cooker I decided I needed to get one. I've had it for a lil over a week and have cooked ribs, roasts, and a venison loin and they've all turned out excellent with very little work from me.
There is only one PBC...it's changed my life...I LOVE IT
I just bought it and must say that I love the way meat tastes. It has a unique blend of smoking, but all the flavors of the meat from the charcoal are amazing. It cooks slightly faster than the times provided, but I love it. I used to use traegger and must say there is a big difference in the taste
Great Service
I had been waiting to order the PBC for some time, and once I finally did, I would have to say that I absolutely love it. The quality of materials is great, and it works fantastically.
I took some time looking for a new smoker because my electric model died on me the beginning of January. So off to the internet to start my research for a new smoker. I began my search where most people do today by asking Google "What is the best smoker?" Pages upon pages of results with all of the smokers and grills you could think of. You have gas, electric, wood, wood pellet, and charcoal just to name a few of the most popular along with the reviews that give them praise and also bashed them to death. During my research i came across a website called amazingribs.com. They have tons of info and reviews on most every smoker, grill, ect.... that you can think of. Their website was my first introduction to the PBC (Pit Barrel Cooker). I was on this website for probably 2-3 weeks reading reviews and user feedback. I asked a couple questions on there and got answers in about a day. They were all very helpful and did not seem biased in anyway. What it came down to for my decision was the reviews and that the PBC was a well made product right here in the USA!!. I have just smoked in it this past weekend for the first time and it truly is a set it and forget it type of smoker similar to my electric. I smoked 3 racks of ribs and 1 chicken. They turned out absolutely great. It does take a little getting used to the fact of hanging everything but I am not worried about that anymore after this weekend. My mind is on overdrive about everything i want to put in this thing now. I would like to thank PBC for making such a great product and trying to keep it made in the good old USA!!! Now i got to get off of this computer and back to smoking something!!! Smoke in your face everybody!!!
Just made great St Louis ribs, best I've ever made! Very well made product. Great bargain for the price. Too easy, so good!
The mug and beer steins arrived in plenty of time, was exactly what he wanted, and was used as soon as he had reason to! I will definitely be looking here again around Father's Day and Christmas!

I was highly impressed on how fast my PBC came! I ordered it on a Saturday on it came on a Wednesday! The cooking experience has been phenomenal! I hung some Tri Tips and it cooked them to perfection! I used the grate to cook a steak and some wings and it was difficult to burn or over cook them! The flavor of my food is on point! I can't wait to try some ribs or a pork but!
Works just as well as was promised. First time I've ever smoked a brisket and it turned out perfectly. Can't wait to hang other cuts in it this spring and summer. Would recommend this to anyone. Great product!
Have always loved smoked meat, fish and poultry. Wasn't into baby sitting the gear/product for hours though. My nephew, fellow foodie and shipmate, convinced me to try the PBC. I placed my order, and reviewed the website videos. The PBC arrived in no time; unpacked it and set it up one evening after work. Fired it up the next morning. By lunch time we had delicious tri-tip and chicken. No muss, no fuss, and delicious product. Looking forward to more PBC!
Good product.
I have cooked chicken, ribs, vegetables and am going to make a pizza this week. Every thing I cook turns out fantastic. Each time I finish a meal I look forward to my next opportunity to grill.
You can cook anything on it and it turns out scrumptious. Frank sahd
