Popping out from the tree was funny 😂 Thanks for sharing the ball valve size, I was wondering who was going to mention that for this smoker as I am doing my homework before buying it. Very informative for anyone's first use of this smoker I think. I also noticed the Chief Firewood under the smoker. I looked it up and seems to be decently priced. What size logs do you typically use on this smoker?
Thanks for watching Danny! I love the G2. The logs I use are about 12" to 14" long. Will this be your first offset smoker? Also stay tuned, I just got something new from Old Country BBQ Pits that might give the G2 a run for it's money. There is a sneak peak of it in my ChefsTemp S1 review I just posted. Cheers!
@GrillSergeant yes, it will be my first smoker. However, I can definitely hold off if Old Country is about to drop something new! I've priced out smokers on an affordable level without comprising quality and Old Country seems to be my answer. I found even Blue Smoke a tad pricey after adding shipping and a few add-ons. Mad Scientist seems very good as well for the money but throw in shipping and it just puts it at the price I'm not comfortable to pay for a backyard smoker. Thank You for being informative and I love the channel sir!
I would say experiment with some magnets to add an additional notch (closer to the firebox than the welded stops for the plate) next to that tuning plate that you said covers the firebox entrance.. I would want that plate to be more vertical, not flat. Using magnets (in my theory) would allow you to add a spot inside to turn that plate more vertical and about 1 inch to maybe 2.5 inches away from the firebox. In my mind that would keep the hot spot directly on the right and even out the temp across the rest of the cooking surface. Maybe it would work, maybe it wouldnt 🤷♂️ plate might even need modification for it to fit that way properly, dont know. Worth a shot, im sure Amazon has some magnets that would work for cheap
I have one ordered.. Do you know the distance between the thermometer port and the grill grate? Ordering tell-true and want to know if I need the 4” stem. Thanks
Very nice smoker I have an Oklahoma Joe Highland I’m going to save up for one of those. 👍🏾👍🏾

You know what this means… Ima be needing one of dat!
Great video bro! Smoke on!!!
on that firebox handle mod it's odd that the G2 people put a handle on the air vent but not the latch to open the fire box
Very nice overview. Thank you! Subscribed! ps: this is my next smoker
I got the first gen back in 2017. Still love it. Great video again. Grill private out sir.

I’ve been seeing the smokers quite a bit on TH-cam, nice cookers and cool mods!
Thanks for the shoutout bud! You got that smoker in top shape!
Nice job Andrew 👏 cheers brother 🍻
Have you compared this unit with the big green egg as a smoker?
I have one ordered.. Do you know the distance between the thermometer port and the grill grate? Ordering tell-true and want to know if I need the 4” stem. Thanks
Omg, the ace ventura cut away. Lol
they make glow in the dark temp gagues kinda awesome
Nice setup 👍
How does the g2 cook briskets? Looking to get one
The fire box and cook chamber need gaskets to prevent smoke leaks
