Smokehouse Products Big Chief Top Load Smoker

Food Smoker Type

Brand

Is Assembly Required

Model

If you're more of the burly hardcore outdoors man, then the big Chief top load smoker may be a better fit than our more traditional front load model. The top loader requires a little extra muscle to load & unload the rack through the top of the smoker, but it provides an added convenience to be able to move all your grill racks at once. Whether you're loading all your jerky onto the rack at once in the kitchen, or moving a rack full of salmon around so you can fan dry the brined fish before you smoke it... the top load rack allows you mobility with all five grill racks at once. Plus, you still get all the great standard features of the big Chief.

I already have the Mini Chief smoker and have used it for years.  The Big Chief top load is very similar only 3 times as large which will allow me to make a huge amount of Jerky in 6 hours instead of two days of smoking.

Big Chief is the perfect size

walmart.com

This item is great. It's trile and error till you get it wright, but once you do your neighbors will love you for the wonders of this smokehouse can produce. Simply amazing.  Good luck.

I've had two of these.  They worked great.

This product has been around for many years. It is not too durable, but for the money does the job well. I had mine shipped to the store. It had a few small dents, but works great. I would recommend that you use some of the larger wood chunks to help the smoke last longer.

great inexpensive smoker

Great for making beef jerky and smoking fish. I have 3 now.
Also use for smoking hotdogs,mac & cheese, mashed potatoes etc. Does not get hot enough to cook foods. 165 degrees

You can hang strips %26 let them air dry with a fan before smoking.

I like the fact that it's easy to use it will hold a whole rack of ribs I don't like that it is very thin metal and you have to be careful if it dents or creases to me it should have been built better but still a good product

My Little Chief top-load smoker lasted me 28 years and I only replaced the burner once. Something inside the plug receptacle finally failed though, so I finally bought the Big Chief that I've wanted since buying the Little Chief :).
The lightweight aluminum structure makes it easy to take on camping or fishing trips and I can't complain about how long it lasts ...unless someone thinks 28 years of faithful service is bad. The NEW Chief series smokers however are much improved. The smoking racks now slide in and out of the frame like a drawer and the heating element is fast and effective ...rolling smoke in minutes. I cold-smoke by putting a small piece of plywood over the top that has a 3" by 8" hole in the middle, then the rack sits on that, and the carboard box doubles as a cold-smoke smoking chamber by flipping it upside down and lowering it over the rack ...works great. You can't do this trick with the front loader and the front loader makes the kitchen end of the job a hassle... where do you put all those racks? With the top loader, you just carry the frame inside and load that up ...easier than doing the same by carrying the whole front-loader inside the house.
These smokers have been a favorite in Alaska for many decades and there are reasons why... they last and they work. The new ones are even better. And no, I have no affiliation with the company. I'm just a happy customer and I finally got my Big Chief after all this time! The only reason that I didn't give the smoker a full 5 stars is because it would be neat to be able to regulate the temperature a bit. That said, the standard temperature that it runs at is fine for 99% of your smoking needs, especially if you use my cold-smoke trick. This smoker is a great value for its cost.

Good product pan should be cast iron and top loader is bad idea.  Front loader would be way easier.  Basic smoker does really well.  Thought the fire department was gonna show due to all the smoke.   A water pan would be a good idea too.   A smoke generator for cold smoke would have saved the cheddar cheese. Once you break the learning curve you have a useful tool but it gives odd heats and lots of it.  Not a cold smoker what so ever unless you buy a heat generator separately.

Not a cold smoker unless you reengineer it

More a cold smoke then anything didn't do what I was expecting it to do.

Good for cold smoke

thin metal dented, rack holders too far apart (dont hold racks), embarrasing to say 'made in america'

poor workmanship
