LANDMANN MCO 32954 Smokey Electric Smoker, 26"

I'm used to building my own commercial smokers that always worked to perfection. I'm now in a retirement community so this is fine. All of these small units are really not smokers, they are cookers that give smoke flavors.It's more for kippering fish and the product is excellent. My easy recipe: rub & coat with a mixture of 4 (cups) parts brown sugar , 1/2 c salt set over night rinse and dry. Coat with coarse black pepper before smoking. coat fish and racks with spray oil. Put fish on top rack and smoke at low heat for an hour. then use medium heat until done, about 30 minutes. Higher temps than cook in about an hour.

best electric smoker I have ever owned. Holds temp well and nice to have window instead of opening door to check. Size is perfect for a small patio and has never tripped my GFI's as others have.Only missing item is a good smokers cookbook. Most of the other smokers came with one. This has no reference guide so your on your own to figure temp and time. I did not drop a star from 5 to 4 over that,but a novice might be upset that there there s no guide to help. So a novice should beware that there is NO cookbook or guide with this unit, so your on your own to play or spend 20 bucks and have to buy one.

There are a few drawbacks; but for a smoker, this is the best product in this price range. The design would be perfect if the manufacturer made 2 modifications.1) the tray for the wood chips should be able to be removed without opening the door and releasing the heat2) there should be some type of drain so liquid from grease and condensation isnt leaking out of every crevice at the bottom (definitely a smoker that should be used over gravel or anything you dont mind staining with liquid smoke)Also, I had to buy self adhesive felt strips to seal the door better and high temperature rubber sealer to seal all the cracks that the smoke was seeping out ofI would give it 3 stars but like I said, its definitely the best electric smoker in this price range (good for a condo)

Very well made little smoker. It has been an adventure learning to smoke meat. Its a hit. I bought a smoking cook book and we are learning so much. tHIS LITTLE GUY IS A FAVORITE GIFT MY HUBBY GOT FOR FATHERS DAY. WE DO SOMETHING EVERY WEEK. WILL BE TRYING OUT SOME JERKY SOON. LOVE THE TASTE OF THE SMOKED MEET.

Awesome smoker. Lasted 5 years. I bought the same one again after the original died.Easy to use. Makes everything delicious!Get One

It just so happened that this arrived on our wedding day..... The luck! I ask him if he is excited..... "Well yes! I can even smoke a turkey for Thanksgiving!" We've now legally been married a little more that 24 hours and I will always be competing with this smoker.As of now it is working just fine. It was easy to assemble. He has already made jerkey and was quite happy with the progress.There is a Low Med and High setting, but we cannot find the base temps for each setting. Currently it's 38° F here and the temp has maintained 220° F in and open area on our back porch.I will update the review as time goes on.Edit: it's been almost a year. We bought it Oct.28 2019. Two months ago it stopped holding proper temp. Now it won't go above 225°. I would say we got about two dozen uses out of it before it's decline. I guess you get what you pay for. All in all, I wish we would have sprung for a better one.

Very good value. Small size is what I wanted. Window helps me monitor cooking. Very accurate. Holds temp very closely. EZ clean up. Am new to smoking meat, but so far I am pleased with this model. Fast heat up.Dace

We own a 40 inch smoker. Worked great served purpose. Now that we smoke for two 26 inch is perfect. First two uses, smoked thighs, and salmon. Perfect. Maintains temp.
