Char-Griller Classic Cart Style Charcoal Grill

Bundle and added Smoker Box. After seasoning the grill, I noticed that some of the lids and dampers shifted making air control more difficult. Also, I am worried about the weight of the smoker box and I wish the grill grates weren't coded. Overall, the grill/smoker is a good size and will give me what I am looking for in an offset smoker so I can work on getting better at smoking food

This is the one. I have had one of these grills well over five years probably longer. I cook everything on it from chicken links steaks ribs and last year smoking pork butt's beef briskets and big ones Yes they fit on the top rack. Ok this is crazy My father in law once told that my ribs come out better than his sons that has won trophies on BBQ competitions and I had to agree 👍. So if your lookin at this it will work pretty well for you.

Excellent grill and recommendations' to improve. I bought this grill and it's definitely my favorite cooking vessel. Food comes out delicious and being able to raise and lower charcoal bed is top notch feature. A few things I hope Char griller considers to improve is cleaning bottom side vent areas. There is minimal space 2" wide and 4" deep where charcoal and food get stuck. There is minimal room to access and clean. The other improvement I hope Char griller engineers consider is to add notches for rotisserie option. I am going to try and make some modifications so I can rotisserie cook.

You can taste the difference from propane. Smoked my first ribs on charcoal on the 4th of July.. Exquisite..

Great Grill. I like the ability to raise and lower the charcoal to adjust the heat. The surface area was more than adequate for 4 bone in ribeyes and four large chicken breasts. I also grilled zucchini - which had nice grill markings and flavor that only charcoal grills can impart.

Nest bang for your buck. Well You can place tour charcoal on one side for your high heat and center grid would be medium cook, and smoking would be furthest from the heat. You can adjust level of charcoal and utilize vents and sm9ke stack accordingly. Best grill I ever owned.

Completely happy with my purchase. When I bought this grill I also purchased the firebox attachment and I have enjoyed it on every single cook. 17lb brisket? EASILY done in this with plenty of room to spare for anything extra. Great amount of surface space! Another great note is that the charcoal pan can actually be raised for a nice sear or lowered for a longer cook. Wheels are sturdy and you can easily move it around. I have spent many hours on this bbq, I highly recommend this grill to anyone.

Great grill. Very easy to assemble, there was a gap at the hinge side..I just loosened the hinge bolts and closed the gap. The front magnet door is awesome for cleaning IF you have an ash shovel..otherwise it's tricky. I purchased this to add to my grill/smoker and gravity smoker. Easily fit 16 large patties of burgers on this grill. It is designed to be a grill not smoker. I highly recommend.

I would recommend this grill. I'm an avid griller, as far as a simple grill, it works great, everything I've made on it so far has turned out amazing, you have plenty of room for indirect cooking and smoking, as well as when your ready to sear. My only complaint so far is the charcoal tray needs to be made of a heavier material and a little deeper. I replaced my Webber 22' kettle with this grill and definitely won't be buying another kettle. The Char Griller seems to cook better and better flavor in my opinion.

Pretty Solid Grill! This grill is more than capable of handling all your standard cooks ( hamburgers, hotdogs, chicken parts, etc). It also does a great job at searing your steaks, thanks to the adjustable charcoal grate. I personally wouldn't consider this grill a serious option for any low & slow cooking because it doesn't circulate good enough and sometimes it will reverse flow on a windy day. If you want to smoke, just do yourself a favor get a dedicated smoker. Cleaning this grill was a bit of a chore due to the design. Overall, a pretty good grill!

This product totally disappointed me. My wife thought she was upgrading my grill. Total disappointment, the charcoal plate warped during seasoning process. Raising and lowering coal and or smoking wood chunks is a balancing act because plate isn't stable due to warping and construction.

Love my new grill. Purchased already assembled. Had to tighten a couple of bolts but other than those everything else was tight and ready to go. Really like the vent being in the front so you can see it. Temperature control seemed to match what the manual suggested. (Yes, I actually read it!) I also like the hooks on the front to hang your utensils so they don't have to lay them on the shelf which leaves room for your meat and other stuff. It's the little things. Overall, very happy this grill.

Awesome Grill. I replaced my gas grill with this one, went to Home Depot and was just looking at grills (wasn't even planning on buying a new one) and when I saw this one and all the features it had really peaked my interest right away. Me and my nephew decided not to wait and both purchased this grill yesterday on the spot, good thing we did because there was only 4 left in the stores inventory and we got 2 of the 4.....also by the time when the store associate brought our grills to us, there was at least 7 guys looking to buy this grill so we were glad we got the grills when did.

My New grill, Over OK. The assembly instructions are poor, the grate cleaning instruction on C5-7 are not for this unit. You have brush charcoal ash through the holes to pan below. The quality of the unit is good. Plastic wheels are cheap. I have completed the seasoning of the grill and 2 cooks. Chicken Breast and Steak. The cranking cook is a very good feature.

Awesome Grill, super easy & functional. Works great, love the ability to adjust charcoal level, and two vents to control temperature. Wheels and locks work excellent for mobility. Two issues I don't like: Dumping ash from charcoal tray to ash tray is a bit tricky, wish the pin or cotter key was easier to access. Minor inconvenience is the pegs for hanging BBQ tools are a little short if your tools don't hang by straps

CharGriller Classic. Love this grill/smoker! I have the side fire box attachment for the long smokes on big meats , and when it's time to sear or direct cook I set the fire in the main grill and crank the fire grate up and it gets super hot!

I love my smoker... I am learning about grilling thanks to the many recipes that our provided by Char Griller and many avid grillers that share their experiences.

Excellent Charcoal Grill. Excellent Product

Great Grill for the Price. This is a great grill! I broke it in with some burgers and hotdogs, everything turned out great! I can't wait to get some cooks in on this grill. The ability to raise and lower the coals is a fantastic feature, this really helps with heat control. You can get the coals close to the grate for searing. You can easily adjust where the coals are, mid cook, in a matter of seconds. I am looking forward to adding the side fire box from Char-Griller so I can use this as an offset smoker. This grill will make a great companion to my 2 Char-Griller® Akorns.

Lacks Complete Seal. Grill does not have a good seal as there locations around legs that are not completely sealed. Takes a lot of time in treating grill and the process can be confusing.
