I ordered this for the family so we could start cooking our own ribs, deer roasts, brisket, and other meats. My wife has wanted one for some time, and this smoker didn't disappoint. The first ribs she cooked were better than any other I've had from restaurants or other stores. I also love the smell of the smoking wood pellets. I also noticed the great quality of the parts as I assembled it. I highly recommend this Camp Chef smoker.
