Anyone Own a Yoder Smoker?

caitlincolorado Cool. Do you know what model he has? How does he like it?
Fat_Bob he has the YS640.
It’s great, he can do 6 racks of ribs at a time. I think he has a little air flow issue so some spots are hotter than others, I’m fuzzy on the details but nothing a little rotation of meat doesn’t fix if it’s full. He has a fireboard thermometer so he can monitor inside easy. He’s happy with it. The freight could kill ya so he ended up with a floor model from the dealer in GJ when that guys stopped carrying them. Definitely make the trip to the Springs. -
glen That’s my local dealer. I’m in Pueblo and nobody in this hayseed town sells them.
sidpost I keep watching but nothing so far. Fingers crossed.
Bob Stehlik Good idea, I’ll see if anyone up there has one.
AG0D He seemed like a real nice guy and at $150 shipping he got my attention. Everyone else was around $450.
caitlincolorado Thanks for the info. I’ve heard the wind can cause the Wichita to back draft a little but not concerned about that. I built a three wall pit area (cinder block) 10 years ago and the open end faces the garage. Not hardly a draft in there.
Tex_77 I like the idea of going to Wichita to pick one up. Then I could go harass Walton’s! LOL

I have the YS640S on the comp cart. My shipping cost to Alaska was $800 bucks. You folks in the lower 48 get them good shipping rates!

I know Yoder is one of the top brands out there.

HerbcoFood saw a few at a stove shop in Charm, Ohio (Amish Country) this summer. They are impressive and built like a tank.

Tex_77 There is. Not sure on stock but All Things BBQ is owned by the same people as Yoder Smokers, if I’m remembering correctly.

Fat_Bob, see above post, I forgot to tag you in it as well.

RafterW I know, i just didn’t want to say the company name. I’m not sure about the ownership, but I would say they are closely aligned if nothing else.

Fat_Bob, I come down to the 'blo pretty regularly. Maybe there is a way I could bring one down and save you the 150? Let me know if that is a possibility.
AG0D Wow, that is why this sight is so great everyone tries to be so helpful.

Been looking into getting a new smoker. Want a heavy wall, offset stick burner. The Big Box store one I have is about worn out after ~10 years. The fire box burner out and welded in a patch but…they are too think and don’t hold heat in Colorado’s winters.
I’m currently looking at the Yoder 20" Wichita and the 24" Kingman. A 30" would be nice for the volume to help stabilize temps more but I’d have to go back to work to afford that. NOT going to happen! LOL
Not into verticals, electrics or pellet poppers. To much good wood around here to use.

Try a custom built smoker from Cotton Gin Smokers
