Reviews
Bit of a learning curve.
"I'm still trying to figure out the actual temps in regards to the grill temps. I did use it to heat up some garlic bread while the steaks were grilling as well and keep tasted burger buns warm while the burgers were cooking. Looking forward to smoking some cheeses."

Smokebox
"Received the smokebox and installed in on my Flagship XL. Everything lined up as it should have. The clip for the bucket did break on me fairly easily. One of the shelves was pretty tough to get in and has a hard time sliding out. If you’re rolling this thing around the shelves will get hung on the door and make it hard to open. Other than that it functions as it should."

I like the box a
"I like the box a lot, had to modify the inside support ring to mount it on my 1600 was the only problem I’ve had. Would recommend the smoke box for smoking or a warmer. 👍👍"

Smokebox
"I added the Smokebox to my Flagship 1600. This is a great addition and I'm very happy with my decision. I've been amazed at how different the temperature is on the bottom shelf vs the top shelf. This allows me to do so much more with this smoker. For me, it was a great purchase and the product is great quality."

Smoke box on my flagship
"I didn't know if I would use it, so far it's a must have addition to my new grill. While I am grilling or smoking I will add something in the box just to try something different. Discovered smoked candied pecan are the bomb."

Q&A
- Trying to install the smokebox on my 1250 that I received for Christmas. Unfortunately your lack of instructions included with the product and the dismal instructions included online provide no insight on what to do with the support ring since you cant use it inside the 1250 without unwelding the shelf support for the upper shelf. You should probably add information on that or stop including parts that are unnecessary for the 1250 if they ring is truly unnecessary. So Recteq - what is the correct answer?
- Hey Joshua, the ring that was provided with the smokebox is for use on the rt-700. Since the rt-1250 has the second shelf it is not needed for support. -Remkus
