lobo235lobo235: I’ve had the smoker a little less than one month but I’ve already got some really great results. I’ve done brisket, pork loin, chicken quarters, pizza, tri-tip steak, an, my favorite, smoked salmon.

At first I was having troubles with the mobile app staying connected to my smoker and with the smoker staying connected to my Wi-Fi network. I ended up buying a Wi-Fi extender which I put inside the house, but close to the back deck where the smoker sits. This solved the problem with the smoker losing Wi-Fi connection. The other issues with the mobile app were solved by an update that Camp Chef put out about two weeks ago that seems to fix a lot of the weird Bluetooth pairing issues.

I believe the Camp Chef only runs on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. If your 2.4 GHz signal is not strong where your smoker will be, I highly recommend getting a range extender for your Wi-Fi network.

With those connection problems fixed, it’s so awesome to be able to run to the store or pop over to a friends house for a bit and still be able to keep an eye on my smoke from the mobile app. The mobile app has some new features as well. One of my favorite features is graphs of temperatures during...

Ashley Warren: Easily one of the best purchases I've made in years! Never even knew what I was missing by not owning a smoker. I saw some of these (pellet smoker) at a BBQ competition and I liked the idea of smoking with little user intervention. Literally just fill it up with pellets and let 'er rock and roll until the internal meat temperature is reached. Foolproof and as long as you don't overcook things, the food comes out excellent. I've learned to trust the temperature probe-- I've overcooked things by second guessing the temperature probe. If a recipe says 145, if I go by the temp probes, it comes out awesome every time.

Unit is built well, plenty sturdy-- there's no mistaking it for a high end product, some of the metal used isn't as thick as I'd like, but what I got for the price I feel is just fine, and perhaps better than I expected. Had some shipping damage, the metal panel of the hopper was dented in courtesy of UPS. Camp Chef customer support resolved the issue. They do take a few days to respond, but I found them extremely helpful.

The Wi-Fi features are simply amazing. At first I thought it would only work in my home (via Wi-Fi) but it's actually cloud based, and...

Amazon Customer: I have had my Smoke Pro WIFI for a couple of weeks now. It is a fantastic smoker. Nice big hopper, controls are pretty straight forward, it seems to be built of good thick steel. Overall I am pleased and would recommend a Camp Chef to a friend but I would advise against getting the unit with WIFI. If it worked properly it would be a wonderful feature but I have not had success getting it to connect to my home network. The antenna in the controller is inside the metal structure of the grill and it can't see a router signal very well. Also the App is clunky and does not seem to work well. whenever I try to pick an option it just sits idle for a few moments then returns to the menu screen. I am hoping updates to the app will improve this soon. If I am within a few feet of the grill I can have my phone connected by Bluetooth but outside of that range it doesn't work without the WIFI connection. Are you listening Camp Chef?
If you want to buy one of these, the side burner is a much more valuable option than the WIFI. Get that model.
