Chud Box Technical Details

Direct Heat Flavor - This is low n’ slow cooking with just charcoal! The cooking surface is 18” from the coal bed so you don’t need to worry about your meat burning and the fat and juices dripping from the meat onto the charcoal creates a unique smoke flavor that can’t be recreated in any other slow cooking method.
3/16” Carbon Steel Construction - Built to last a lifetime. Retains heat longer, so you use less fuel and don ’t need to worry about heat swings. Compared to Hasty Bake Roughnecks .0478” almost 4x thicker, and Weber Smokey Mountain’s 1/16” 3x thicker.
Simple Design - The design doesn’t rely on moving cooking grates, or other gimmicky features that fail over time. Simply put your coals in the base of the box, put your meat on the grill grate and adjust airflow with the door’s notch system. You’ll be surprised by how much flavor you get, and how rewarding it is, cooking with old school methods!
Versatility - Add a couple wood chunks to your coal bed to get the classic wood smoke flavor to your meat. Use the Grill Basket add-on, to turn the Chud Box into a hot n’ fast cooker, and build an amazing char-grilled crust to your food. Use the rotisserie add-on and you’ll have the juiciest, most evenly cooked direct heat smoked meat. Throw a smoke generator in the box to turn it into a cold smoker. The possibilities are endless!

Coulda sworn I already reviewed this masterpiece of a cooker

As soon as word dropped that the all new mini Chudbox was available I purchased one and ended up being the second order as Brad got the first one.
I've probably done over a thousand cooks on this beauty and it never disappoints. It is a chicken wing cookin' machine! As well as pretty much any other protein you can think of.
If you have any mechanical aptitude at all and basic hand tool, assembly is easy peasy.
All of my other cookers, my Moberg, my Weber Kettle and my PK look on in jealousy at the amount of attention the Chudbox receives.
My only problem with it is I wish I had two of them but I'm pretty sure my wife would kill me. ;)

Just got and LOVE so far!

Picked it up in Irving, got a short tour while I waited. Got it home assembled and burned in. Used more charcoal than was needed, but burned in for about 6 hours. Maintained between 500 and 300 degrees. One it reached 300, through chicken thighs on. Awesome cooker! So easy to cook with. Thanks Brad for a great cooker. I have the grill and absolutely love it, but I think that this is going to be so much more versatile. I did get the grill basket, it will have to be great to beat the grill. This will stay at our retirement home, and look forward to many great cooks.

Great cooker

The things I like about this cooker go beyond the great food it produces. It’s also *fun* to cook on and has character in its shape and look. Also it’s not too big, not too small. If I want to roll it up to the front yard I just strap it on my dolly and drag it to the front yard. Easy peasy. I can’t do that with my 700 pound offset due to the incline.

One thing to note on setup is that this things is precision-made. The holes that are drilled for the legs to bolt in seemed to be the *exact* right size. We found it easier to rotate it on its lid and work that way because we were not getting the bolts in quite right when it was sideways and it felt like we would strip something. But big picture it’s not hard to put together. Just gotta play with it some and make sure you don’t force it.

I’m also probably going to add firebrick to the bottom mostly to make ash clean up easier, though I realize many people like that lip because it helps keep charcoal in and you could also just vaccuum the ash out it instead of sweeping it out. I think I just prefer being able to sweep it out. Just a personal preference but not a big deal. There were some rust spots I had to clean up but that’s not anyone’s fault. It sat outside for about a week because it was delivered when I was on vacation but I was ok with that. Delivery driver left it exactly where I asked in front of the garage and that part of the process I felt was handled very well. Smooth experience all around! Thanks Chudd!

Best all-around grill

This thing is great for smoking, charcoal you name it you can do it. If you want indirect heat, I put ceramic plates in my charcoal box and it does the job. The only issue I’ve had is maintenance on my end, living on the saltwater so I got my Cerakote. Just got it back today. Can’t wait to throw some ribeyes on there and a brisket this weekend.

Delicious Direct Heat

Love the Chud Box. That direct heat flavor can’t be beat. Easy assembly and durable cooker. We have the grill box and rotisserie to make this the most versatile cooker available.

Thanks for the support..now go cook something outside!!
