Title: Bradley Propane Smoker
Post by: Suther on November 04, 2013, 08:40:20 PM
Anyone use one of these guys?

They are only $200, and seem to be a pretty good size. I havn't seen one in person, I only just found out they existed a few minutes ago... They advertise them as something for on the boat or when camping, but I dont see why I couldn't use it in my backyard...

The countertop model looks decent enough, but the propane one has a much larger cooking area.

That said, more looking on the internet and Im not sure if the propane model is even made anymore??

Suther e-mail them.... as there just down off river road in Delta and ask them if they have been discontinued ! maybe they have some still or scratch and dents.

I might waite to buy the counter top 1 when Canadian tire carries them as they always put them on sale 3 or 4 x a year

Too bad it is propane and not natural gas.  I have a T hook up on my deck, one line to my BBQ and another to my patio heater.  Most of the time I don't use the patio, it would be nice to run a line to an gas smoker.

Yeah that would be sweet. Although it would also defeat the "portable" aspect,  at which point might as well go electric.

Still havn't found anything about the propane smoker. Too bad...

The two-rack compact smoker is on sale at Sea-Run for $189 right now though, not too shabby of a price, although a big chief is only $140.... Oh the dilemma!

2 racks is too small, I have a digital 6 rack Bradley but I would never have one with less than 4 racks. Don't settle when it comes to a smoker

Yeah I haven't seen one in person yet but in the adds they look like a big toaster oven...

Has anyone actually used one yet? They any good? Or is the size really that much of a problem?

I looked at one the other day at Canadian tire and they are pretty much the size of a toaster oven but one the positive they would be perfect for smoking small quantities of fish or if you wanted to have a smoker for your regular meals like roasts, ribs or pork then this would be perfect. I used my full sized Bradley the other day for 3 chicken breast and they only took up 3/4 of one rack. This smaller smoker would of been the perfect size.
