Weber 9879 Steam-N-Chips Smoker Review

3.5 from 5

I got my first Weber (Genesis B) and had to get the smoker and try 'er out. Kinda wishing I saved my money and just got the smokey mt though... here is why:
I got my grill at home depot so I would have the nice Cast Iron porcelin enamel coated grates. When using the smoker you must remove one grate and replace it with a supplemental smaller grate so that the smoker will fit on the side. This grate does not sear like the cast iron!!! Weber also does not make a cast iron to fit this size, so when using the smoker, you only get 1/2 of a grill to make nice sears on.
However, I havn't taken it out since I bought it over a week ago, so I guess the flavor is worth it. ;-) In regards to the previous review, I have had no trouble smoking a pork sholder for 5 hours, and the smoke was thick and rolling the whole time. I think the key is to soak the chips for a minimum of 30 minutes (i'll let them soak for hours if i think ahead). Make sure you load up enough chips - I pretty much filled the tray up. SHUT THE LID OF THE SMOKER!!! That part is key! Especially when heating up the grill. When heating on high I've found it takes slightly under 10 minutes to start to smolder, turn down the grill now! Before it starts a full on smoke!! I wasn't going for "low and slow"... but wanted to maintain a 325 degree oven for the entire time. I checked the internal temp at 3, 4, and 5 hours getting the pork up to an internal temp of 182 (figured it would rise another couple degrees after I took it off). The pulled pork was AMAZING! Plus I got the pink ring!!! It was my first smoking experience and I fed 10 people with the recipe from Weber nation (i doubled it). So long story short... if you already have the gas grill and don't want to invest another 0+ in a smoker... try it out! It may not be as great as the smokey mt. but it really SMOKES!

Weber 9879 Steam-N-Chips Smoker Specifications

While a gas grill offers greater temperature control and reduced carcinogens for better air quality, sometimes the rustic flavor of a wood-burning grill is what you crave. To find the traditional barbecue taste you're searching for, look no further than Weber's Steam-N-Chips smoker for Genesis gas grills.

The smoker fits along the left-hand side of Genesis models Gold B, Gold C, Silver B, and Silver C. Both box and grates are made from enameled porcelain. To use, simply fill the smoker with presoaked wood chips or veggies--to infuse them with the aroma of a simultaneously cooking steak. As meats cook, aromas seep out of the wood chips, infusing meats and vegetables with undertones of the chosen flavors. When cleaning the smoker, avoid abrasives and steel wool that may scratch the enameled porcelain. This item measures 25 inches long and weighs 5 pounds. --Jessica Reuling
