Smokin Monkey Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 What commercial smokers are being used in the UK BBQ Restaurants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadCow Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Cookshack (Electric) and Fast Eddy (Pellet) by Cookshack are great commercial Smokers and very popular in the restaurant arena. Southern Pride are also pretty good if you want something that runs on Gas. All have a decent footprint size and can cope with large amounts of meat.

Wade Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I use an FEC-120 from Cookshack and apart from a few teething problems when they moved to the multi-layer 240 v board it has worked flawlessly. The BBQ restaurant Que's in Ashford near me also run on a couple of them too. Good capacity and very easy to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noel Bateman Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I think Jason uses the proQ gfc 4200 and uses a stitch for catering in addition to asado Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereabouts are you Wade, I'm near Ashford too ... interesting to know that Que's uses Fast Eddies, they never seem to be smoking much when I go past... not been in though.

Wade Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I am in Woodchurch. Where are you. I was beginning to think I was a lone wolf in the wilderness down here . I have eaten at Que's once and it was OK. Quite commercial versions of BBQ as you would expect but tasty. They have part of the restaurant as a wine bar too which is where most of their trade comes from I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valve90210 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 I've been meaning to get myself along to Que's at some point to either inspire me (if it's amazing) or satisfy me (if mine is better...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Prepare to be satisfied. Their BBQ is good but it is commercial. It is much more difficult to maintain the home quality when you are having to produce it 6 days a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valve90210 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 That's pretty much what I figured but to be honest I'll be happy either way..just another excuse to eat some delicious meat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Logs Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 The big guns use J & R's from Mesquite in Texas The other types are Old Hickory's or Southern Pride. Both of these are either electric or gas + wood or wood and charcoal in the firebox. Mostly working on 3 phase power and pretty spot on for a scaled up operation.

ProSmoker Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) Do you have a budget/price in mind that you would like to spend?

davidmac Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) A commercial smoker gives you the ability to offer your customers smokey-flavored meats all year round (even in the frigid Canadian winters). These are a convenient indoor option for roasting or smoking your foods, whether you have a BBQ restaurant or a Montreal diner with smoked meats. At least check full this review if you want to read more about smokers!
