Comments about Smoke Hollow 38" LP Gas Smoker w/ Double Door, 38202G:

After starting out with an electric smoker back in the 1970's and going through a couple of charcoal smokers I finally got serious and purchased this. All of the parts were well made, the assembly instructions were nice and clear and assembly itself was relatively easy.
Since I got it I have smoked two pork shoulders, two chickens, two racks of baby back ribs and a sirloin tip roast. All except for the sirloin tip turned out great (I overcooked the sirloin tip). There is plenty of room in the smoker,it could probably handle eight pork shoulders at one time. I was able to place both racks of ribs on one rack with plenty of room around them. Another positive aspect of this smoker is temperature control. By using the burner control on the bottom and the damper on the back of the smoker it is fairly simple to maintain the desired temperature. And wind hasn't really been an issue if you face the smoker so that the front faces the wind as suggested in the manual. I also like the smoke box. My wood chips last three times as long compared to the charcoal smokers that I used in the past. That is three times more smoke, so more smoke flavor for the same amount of wood chips.
All in all, I have been very happy with this smoker.

Great smoker for all smoking. Only flaw is that it leaks a bunch of smoke through the doors that don't seal well. However, it was fixed with some weather stripping.

I've been looking to upgrade my electric Brinkman smoker for awhile and I really liked the Smoke Hollow line. The 44" with the double doors was my first choice but it has never gone on sale and i was looking for a bargain. I came upon this 38" also known as No.6 and couldn't be happier. Gander Mountain had a great deal on it and the shipping was super fast. I've already smoked a couple of slabs of ribs and one boston butt. I really think the process has been greatly enhanced with this new smoker and my wife says it's my best effort to date. Controlling temps is easy and i couldn't be happier.

I am not a review writer, however I believe this product warrants a review. I shopped for a smoker for a couple of months, reading many reviews along the way. I decided on this smoker because it had all the features I desired--double doors, brass burner, heavy duty shelves, and adjustable door latches. It has bonus features, including sausage rack and thermometer.

All parts are good quality, everything was in the box and assembly was easy. Price was reasonable.

This is my first gas smoker and I started out cooking ribs and a whole chicken. Following the directions in the included book, cooking was easy and the food turned out phenomenally! Smoker held a consistent temperature once it came up to temp. I recommend this smoker.

AFTER USING THIS SMOKER A DOZEN TIMES AND TURNING OUT DELICIOUS MEATS AND THIS NOT BEONG MY FIRST SMOKER I WAS FAMILAR WITH HOW THEY WORKED. ONE NIGHT THE FLAME WENT OUT, AFTER TURNING OFF THE GAS AND GIVING IT A FEW MINUTES I WENT TO IGNITE IT AGAIN AND WAS CAUGHT IN A FIRE BALL THAT LEFT 3RD DEGREE BURNS ALL OVER MY HANDS. AFTER CONTACTING OUTDOOR LEISURE PRODUCTS AND LETTING THEM KNOW OF WHAT HAPPEND. THE CUSTOMER REPRESENTATIVE BASICALLY TOLD ME THAT I WAS NOT TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT HAD HAPPENED TO ME. I AM HAPPY WITH THE PRODUCT JUST NOT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM OLP.
