Product Description

In 1990, founder Ty Measom found himself both frustrated and inspired with the size and quality of the outdoor cooking equipment available. He set out to create a product that was both portable and powerful. After countless hours of brainstorming, engineering, and tinkering, the Pro60 was born—and along with it—a company to pioneer the camp-cooking industry. The simple, yet durable design was applauded by outdoorsmen everywhere. Since then we’ve added griddles and grill box attachments, a variety of cast iron pieces, and more recently—pellet grills. Over the past 30 years, our product line has expanded, but our objective remains the same—provide a better way to cook outdoors.

We’ve raised the steaks in the outdoor cooking industry. So, we challenge you to ask yourself if your cooking equipment is tough enough for the task. Whether you’re barbecuing on the back patio or backpacking in Bolivia—delicious food is attainable despite your coordinates. So, get out there. Make memories with the people you love. Experience the beauty of nature. Feed your outside however you want with the durability, versatility, portability, and power of Camp Chef.

4 Stars
Great setup for the money.
Got my 18" Smoke Vault this weekend. Very easy to assemble by yourself with basic hand tools. I think I had the entire thing together in less than 20 minutes. Seasoned it with some hickory wood for about an hour at 350 degrees and then brought the temp down to start building that nice smoke layer inside the smoker. Did a trial run yesterday with it and did a 3.5lb beef tenderloin smoked for about 2 hours to hit a medium rare internal temp of about 135-140. Was around 36 degrees out and windy so I did notice the wind getting into the side vents would cause temp to change a bit but I had no issues keeping it between 225-250 degrees. You can drive yourself insane if you try to keep hitting target temps within a few degrees. I plan to do a 5lb leg of lamb for Easter in it as well over some cherry wood.The GOOD: Easy to assemble, very portable for moving around or bringing somewhere (this is what I was after; sold my brinkmann trailmaster as it was too big to lug back and forth to my in laws weekend house); Holds good temp range; SUPER EASY to clean! Just take the rack out thorw it in the dishwasher and you are done! Same with the water pan.The NOT SO GOOD: The vents on the bottom still have a fairly large opening, even in the fully closed position (about 3/4" to 1" opening) This caused a little issue with the cold outside temps I had and wind during this last cook. I am going to try carefully bending the inside tab on the vents to allow them to be closed all the way. The temp gauge on the door is pretty much useless. I mean it will tell you when its hot and thats about it. I used my Maverick ET732 temp probe on the rack where I was cooking and had very good control. There is some smoke that leaks out around the door. Not a real big issue, I actually have some high temp gasket material I am going to try installing on the door to minimize the gap.I wanted to test the temp gauge from the door, so i actually took a pot of water and brought it to a boil. I checked it with my ET732 temp probe and it read a steady 212 degrees. The temp gauge from the door was about 25-30 degrees too high. One thing to also consider is the door temp probe is only in to the cooking chamber about 2" where as your meats will be in the center above the water pan, which is acting as a diffuser so you will have a lower temp in the center than on the outsides. I saw a difference of just over 300 degrees on the door temp probe when my ET732 probe was reading 250 on the center of the rack I was using. Again not a big deal, just something to take into consideration. My experience has been no smoker is perfect out of the box, and everyones different cooking styles will change how you use it. I think part of the fun is trying to find ways to improve it to better your results of what ever it is your cooking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Attractive, roomy, and makes great smoked food
Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2017
I just had the best smoked meatloaf in my life and I made it myself in this wonderful smoker. It's easy to operate, roomy, and really does the job. Once you get a handle on it, it's so simple - put wood chips in the tray, water in the pan, food on a rack and turn it on. I can't really compare as this is the first smoker I've had, but I wouldn't want to be without it.

A couple of notes. The thermometer in the door is worthless, but I expected that - pretty much every smoker review says that about every smoker's built-in thermometer. Kind of makes you wonder why they even bother. I got the Maverick Grill Grate ET732 thermometer system that works beautifully with this - remotely track both the temperature inside the smoker and inside the food at the same time.

Assembly was not difficult, but instructions were, as usual, less than helpful. The one really annoying thing was that the glue on the back of the advertising label on the front door wouldn't come off completely - there are still faint lines on my door from that bad gluing job.

Note: first time I used the smoker, it was extremely windy, and I had a hard time keeping a steady temperature until I created a bit of a windbreak near the smoker. That did the trick.
