Once you have got the taste for smoking the next natural step up is Weber's Smokey Mountain cooker. Available in 3 different sizes this barbecue is built specifically to secure a low temperature, making it perfect for smoking and for cooking "low and slow". Because of it's shape, construction and the integrated water pan you can maintain a low stable temperature over many hours - exactly what is key when you smoke. This way you can experiment with smoking fish, meat, cheese and vegetables as well as some of the true American classics such as pulled pork.

Place the recommended quantity of soaked smoke chips directly on the briquettes, place the lid on the barbecue quickly and wait for white smoke to appear. Chunks are ideal for longer, low and slow cooking and should just be placed directly on the briquettes and don't need soaking. Place your food on the cooking grate and put the lid on. The food will now be smoked at the same time as it is cooked. Weber have a range of exciting flavours from the milder apple, beech and cherry to mesquite and pecan and the stronger whiskey and hickory flavours. Each flavouring adding it's own characteristic to the food. 

Beneath the lid is a triple plated cooking grate that gives you all the benefits of a Weber kettle barbecue, you can grill and bake, fit the Pizza Oven and rotisserie. The fantastic black porcelain-enamelled mid oven section is fitted with a second triple plated cooking grate with porcelain-enamelled water pan that adds steam to the smoking process, so meat stays moist and tender for succulent delicious foods every time.
