Char-Broil 2-in-1 Hybrid Propane Gas/Charcoal Grill Review
Char-Broil has done it again, literally. They released different versions of this basic design before. It’s not a bad gas grill and not a good charcoal grill. We reviewed this model and strongly recommend folks who want to use both fuels in this price range, spend just a little extra and get separate gas and charcoal grills.

Brinkmann Smoke ‘N Pit Review
Cheap Offset Smokers like this Brinkmann can ruin your day, party and marriage. Don’t buy them! We have a lengthy dissertation explaining why. In short: they are hard to use and don’t produce the best results. This one is just like a Char-Broil offset and we suspect they are made at the same Chinese factory.

J&R Oyler 700 Review
Read our review of this commercial smoker. Eighteen racks, said to handle up to 1000 pounds, move slowly on a rotary carousel. The rotary motion promotes even heat and allows meats to self-baste as drippings are recirculated to the racks below. When the front doors are opened, dampers operate automatically to hold smoke in and prevent it from billowing out.
