Overview
Char-Griller's CG30044223 is a charcoal smoker built from alloy steel with a black finish, sized at 30 x 60 x 52 inches and weighing around 115 pounds. It suits shoppers set on charcoal-fueled smoking rather than gas or pellet, in a large freestanding footprint.
A dedicated charcoal smoker occupies floor space differently than a barrel grill, and at 60 inches long with a listed weight of 115 pounds, this one is meant to sit in one spot rather than move around a patio. The alloy steel build points to a barrel or offset design, though the data does not specify firebox size or cooking grate count.
- Fuel type Charcoal
- Alloy steel construction
- Black finish
- 30 x 60 x 52 in footprint
Who it's for
Fits people who already smoke with charcoal and want a large-capacity unit rather than a compact tabletop smoker. Not aimed at gas or pellet users, or anyone short on patio space, given the 60-inch length.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Charcoal fuel for traditional smoke flavor
- Large 60-inch-long build for bigger cooks
- No grate area, vent, or firebox specs given
- Heavy 115 lb unit is not portable
Performance notes
Charcoal smoking depends on airflow control through vents and firebox size, neither of which is detailed in the available specs, so expect to manage temperature manually with a full-size charcoal smoker of this footprint.
