  2. Power: It has a 120 volt, 8 amp of power unit that can easily control 100-250 degree Fahrenheit temperature inside it. This evenly distributes the heat inside the chamber.
  3. Construction: When it comes to a quality electric smoker, the word “construction” is all that it matters. This smoker measures 20.4 inches high, 15 inches deep and 19 inches wide and has a spacious cooking chamber that makes it perfect for large gatherings. The inner of the smoker is made from stainless steel material. This stainless steel is well-insulated that prevents the loss of heat.

The electric smoker is ideal for fish and lighter proteins that require very low cooking temperatures, but it can also handle the heft of ribs, steaks and turkeys as well. Three adjustable racks allow interior flexibility and air flow throughout. The removable drip pan allows you to capture the cooking juices for easy clean up or incorporation into a sauce or gravy.

This is not going to be the least expensive electric smoker, but it does provide consistent results and is easy to use. Size may also be a factor, but if you require a larger capacity, the Smokin-It brand manufactures three sizes priced from $299 to $1,800.
