hey y'all it's Jimmy Lisa with Founders camping with another Tuesday talks for rvers I said
it for her that was my line
[Music] so today we have a new shipment that just came in our friends over at hey Smoke
sent us a smoker pellet grill pellet grill and smoker and it's small enough to be portable
so we can take it with us on the road so we're getting ready to unbox it now and see what
it looks like inside see how easy it is to set up says assembly required we'll see blue
[Music]
these are probably the instructions
that was a little um
caution read and remove sticker before use
so we're just going to get all the pieces and parts out and then I'll leave the directions
[Music]
step one is with it upside down you're gonna remove the screws and we're gonna put the
feet on both sides
[Music] so do you all travel with a grill with a smoker or the flat top griddle what
do you keep in your camper that you travel with comment below and let us know up until
now we've only had our flat top hurdle outside um so this is going to be an exciting addition
so what's cool about this that's different from the one at home the ashtray so this is
going to be the water pan but this is going to collect the ash though you don't have to
clean it from inside and fight with that it drops the ash here so when you ride it back
up my camper you just dump the Asher up wipe the train you're good foreign [Applause] [Music]
so now we will read through the instructions on first time cooking and what to do to prep
the smoker so that we can use it as a smoker for a girl so since I didn't read the instructions
I was wrong and this does not go here it goes right here on the side
and plugs in there just to correct myself during the assembly process we came across
this little guy we weren't really sure where it went found a hole that it fit in and we
left it there fun further research it turns out that if you don't use a smoke 100 all
wood pellets the ash doesn't produce the same way it does with the all wood and it will
fall through the grates so if you're choosing to use pellets that aren't 100 hardwood you're
going to need this little accessory to sit down in there to keep the ash up so that your
temperature will stay consistent foreign

so we have finished two whole meals on this and I've seen a lot of pluses and I have one
main downside what did you think about it well I thought everything we had was delicious
of course I cooked it you and Emily cooked it so the first night we had steaks and they
were like I want to cook another steak now I think the steaks were perfect and what I
think was perfect about them was they were nice and seared on the outside but on the
inside they were pretty much the same doneness all the way through and we don't need them
well done so no way no so when you get something that's medium to medium rare usually that
means it's really rare in the middle and then gets more and more done as you get to the
outside but this was pretty much medium the whole way through the stake and it had a good
flavor so that was really good and then a couple nights later our daughter decided she
wanted to smoke some macaroni and cheese I think it was Thanksgiving she made it for
Thanksgiving but I'm gonna tell you what it was so good scrumptious so good so all in
all I'm I'm very pleased the only thing I would say that they could do better and this
is far-fetched would be if it could be smaller but it's already very compact just you know
anything that's smaller and lighter makes me happy but this is way smaller than the
last smoker slash grill that we toted with us so all in all so we've had a couple friends
here to also have some of the other brands and the one main thing they really like oh
this is this is this tray right here that pulls out we have this and they don't pulls
out in all the fashion stuff goes right there so that was perfect for us as far as cleaning
but what they have that the one negative thing that I don't have that they have right here
we some handles would be helpful when lifting it because it's it's it's very awkward to
try to pick this thing up without some handles on the side of it so there it is for what
it is I think it's great um I'm pretty sure it's going to fit in the storage space I want
to put it in I haven't tried that yet but the food was good it performed very well the
ash all dumps right there which makes it so easy and the other brands doesn't don't have
the Bowl here for to put water water or juice or whatever you want if you're smoking to
get that smoke through there too so that right there was a good thing that that they did
have give us some handles and I think sorry about the truck give us some handles and I
think that this thing will be 110 percent we like it so there you go guys so until the
next time you see us smoking grilling searing whatever all this thing would do safe travels
y'all
