I think the weber one is just a charcoal holder I believe? I may be buying into the hype of the American one too much but apparently the built in water reservoir acts as a barrier to make the indirect cooking better?

Yeah thats where I saw it and the amazingribs website seems to be held in very high opinion so assumed there must be something to it!
It looks like shipping costs is per item and then adding taxes on top kinda takes the shine off again.
You might be better contacting Garden Gift Shop and WishBox USA, as you can see from my links they already import the Smokenator to the UK for reasonable prices so they may be interested in doing the same for this product.
I have to admit I would buy one over the Smokenator (was going to pick up the German clone at Easter due to the Euro) but would rather have one of these.

Ive sent them an email and they will supplly a shipping cost for additional units but predict an additional $20 per unit. The taxes will be an issue of course.
The other option is to get my USA based mate to buy one and ship it over and mark it as a gift!

If I still smoked on my kettle BBQ I'd pick one up but... I don't unfortunately

Looks incredible! Did you cook it wrapped in foil?

Im looking for a thermometer that can tell me the temperature inside my bbq? Ive seen some on bbq sites that has a probe that sits on the grill but cant seem to find them anywhere unless Im missing the obvious!
Soldato
Nice! Im going to try some very soon!

I always do half covered (6hrs) and then remaining 6 covered in foil for my pulled pork.
Soldato
Ordered thanks! Might come in time for some pulled pork at the weekend!
The Maverick is very good (and very well regarded online). You've made the right choice
What do you mean by half covered?

Half the time, sorry. So 6hrs uncovered and then 6 hours wrapped in foil.
Ah, makes sense
I do similar though once wrapped I'll usually stick it in the oven.

Read the amazing ribs article on looking after the probes though.
