Franklin pit is especially impressive given that it is cooking wide open with no damper on the smoke stack. Usually that means a lot of aggressive airflow (which it probably is producing a lot of air flow) that causes the hot spots to be more aggressive. I think the franklin pit is a really genius design, with the water pan shelf that creates a pressure vacuum to pull all the hot air up and in to.

Shoutout to Mad Scientist for the best BBQ music on KZbin

[@jroper04]

Just wanted to say thanks for your videos. Very informative and helped me choose my next offset. Getting the workhorse 1975.

[@MadScientistBBQ]

That’s a great pit!

[@M4ttNet]

Great comparison. Your videos on these cookers are so useful. It's very hard to fine useful comparisons for al of these things and it's not like you can just go to the store and test things like these. Really enjoying my Workhorse 1975. Was a toss up between it and the Fat Stack, but at the price the 1975 won out.

[@pjredrock13]

Ordered my goldees yesterday. Can’t wait to see the videos so I can get more info on how to cook on it

[@THutch556]

So much can dictate a biscuit test. Totally bias IMO. Where you position your fire in the firebox, wether it’s closer to the door versus Cook chamber will make a difference, if testing with heat from a larger coal bed, versus open flames will also make a difference, obviously how you run your stack damper makes a huge difference. With the TMG drawing as hard as it can with a wide open stack, of course it pulled harder and cooked more on one side. Heat was rushing through. Adding a water pan to the goldees pit right in the hot spot, (reducing the burned percentage) and then also closing down the damper to even out the Cook chamber. (Slowing down convection) Yeah Totally fair! Lol. Run that test again on that pit with no water pan and stack open, the same way the TMG was set up and your percentage is gonna be way different. For anyone who’s never done a biscuit test, once you learn your pit, you can make a biscuit test look as good as you want or as bad as you want.

[@tmgpits]

Well said!!!

[@youwould2779]

This should be pinned. Well said.

Perfect test to be honest.. it's like putting a vehicle in a wind tunnel. Never really thought of this but its a perfect test to figure out what your offset does.

[@johnmcleanjr.1468]

Very good results and information. I love the test.

DAAAAANGG!!!!I just missed you! I moved out West a year ago from the Detroit area. My son got married 10/21 and I was in town for that on the 19th. I could have come out. Also my nieces have a pop-up coffee bar that may have been there. So mad I missed you. I would definitely have drooped by for some great brisket. Next time, Gadget... Next time!

[@epickleuva]

Why is there a water pan in the Goldees pit? Massive heat sink. The Volunteer needs to be run with the stack half closed first few hours. Door cracked. Small fire. Runs like a dream.

[@SocalReloader]

Maybe because he's trying to sell Goldees pits...

[@epickleuva]

@@SocalReloader you nailed it

[@lyleswavel320]

Just needs some cheese, brisket & eggs to put on those biscuits

[@mbed0123]

Many thanks, Jeremy. So many! You've given me the confidence to move forward with my smoking. Did my first brisket (19.57lbs! Un-trimmed) a month ago and followed your guidance to a "T" I ended up with a nine-hour unwrapped and an additional four hours wrapped on the smoker! Then a fourteen-hour rest period in the oven at a hundred and fifty degrees. Just simply put "bang on fantastic" all around! Used hickory log and a lump charcoal mix throughout. Thanks again for the trade secrets!!

[@Ryansbbqnbrew]

You can get a blue smoke smoker for $1700 which is a sister company of big Phil’s smoker which is very similar to all of those and 3/8. Love all the pits and would love to have them but my budget was blue smoke and love it!! Great video been a follower since the old country smoker days. 🍻

[@Zokfend]

Very interesting comparison. Thanks!!

[@dabigeasybbq]

Great test to find the hot zones on a grill and get to know your grill.. I have seen some people talk about budgets, so a good comparison would be the cheapest offset cook off.. I think an entry level comparison would be good to get the bbq juices flowing and show people you can do quality bbq within their budget. We all started somewhere based on our budget and progressed to bigger and expensive bbq smokers.

[@kristianstevens906]

Would be cool to try on my Outlaw Patio. It's certainly a different design of offset.

[@debo98433]

Also, on the Franklin, is there any way a heat deflector by the fire box would help to diffuse some of that heat there and give you a little more usable space?

[@debo98433]

Every test or cook that I’ve seen you do on that Franklin has been impressive. If I can ever convince my wife of the benefits from buying a cooker for $5000, I’d like to get one of those.

[@silveraven1]

Thanks Jeremy. I wish you would do a video like this on your whole line of smokers. As I have the Cheyenne and she’s pretty touchy to run. However, never tried closing the damper down. I have very little usable space on the smoker with that hotspot that is present on the larger smokers

[@richardwelterii7311]

I use a Cheyenne as well. I found that if you take the grate in the firebox out, it's a little easier to run. I bank a log on the back side of the coal bed and then put one on top, perpendicular to it. I also use 8" wood splits.

[@silveraven1]

@@richardwelterii7311 Thanks, I’ll giver a try. Have you ever tried removing the diffuser plate in the pit?

[@wpherigo1]

Great approach! Have you considered doing tests on average person smokers (well under $1000)?

[@bobbyd_cg]

You need to see if you can get a test done with a Lone Star Grillz Texas Edition. I’m really intrigued by them, but can’t find any videos with them.

[@danjennings5068]

I'm not surprised that the goldees has a blowtorch down the center. That pipe joining a flat plate isn't great for airflow. Aaron talked a lot about smooth transitions for airflow in his designing a pit video. If it belled out and encouraged the hot air to spread out across the right wall it'd have a lot more BBQing space. That said, it can be handy to have a hot spot like that if you're wanting to hot/fast something while your low/slow cooks on the other end.

[@yenzen9112]

Would have liked to have seen more discussion in this vid about the baffle setups that these pits had. That is a big factor in how the heat is distributed through the chamber.

[@jerrychastain8567]

I couldn’t help but notice the water pan baffle on the Goldees pit…would the pan not being there have changed the 14.28% ? Nice video and very informative. 😁

[@ryanb4481]

Yes. The water pan appeared to do very little to deflect the heat on the two biscuits behind it. It essentially just took the place of another biscuit which would have been burnt as well. So without water pan would be 20%.

[@sydleyrobertsonjr.3315]

I would also like to see an LSG Texas Edition review.

[@peterbrushett7554]

Would’ve liked to see how a reverse flow would have compared to the three regular flow.

[@michaelcoughlin8238]

I want to see this on a reverse flow. Top and bottom rack. There have been some KZbin videos saying it's too hot underneath, but they ran their cookers high as if it was a direct flow. If you run it like a reverse flow, I think you'll be surprised at no hot spots and complete use of cooking surface.

[@frankandbeansbbq]

If I remember correctly I think @tmgpits has a video of a biscuit test on the Fridge. I don't remember where I saw it though..

[@farrisfcs39]

So what would happen if you just made the Franklin Pit Larger to match the TMG or if the TMG pit with that style shelf/baffle in it would be the same results. Those are the biscuits that got burned. 40 percent of the bottom grate on the Franklin is gone because of it. Also you can pull that fire back closer to the door on the TMG. It seemed like in the video it was in there a bit. I think playing with the fire management and running actual BBQ temps you will see a big difference in the Volunteer.

[@jerrychastain8567]

That makes good sense to me.

[@tmgpits]

We agree. It’s not rocket science!!!

[@dansteiner9393]

Would love to see how this compares to the 1975. Is the Goldee's really better?

[@lyleswavel320]

Goldees surprised me, maybe pipe coming into cook chamber needs to be width of smoker instead of a 8 inch pipe

[@kevinwill8542]

[@michaelduncan2759]

Damn was hoping for the Primitive Pits smoker to be involved in this.😞 My apologies if you already have, and I missed it.

[@skr1b]

What about the Mill scale? Wouldn't that have been an important one to test?

[@jamesjoung2793]

The easiest way to explain heat vs temp is to compare a bathtub full of hot water vs a candle. The flame of the candle is much hotter, but the bathtub full of water has much more heat/thermal mass.

[@kdranchaz3240]

Great information. Liking the Golden’s pit. Wonder why they didn’t position the opening above the great level to eliminate that hot spot? Perhaps it would hinder air flow??

[@MadScientistBBQ]

It might. I dunno exactly. Maybe it was to avoid a big dead spot on that side of the grate

[@jameslam1759]

I thought he said it was just for the symmetry and aesthetic with the stack exit.

[@kevo9470]

couldnt you easily add a heat shield to those hot spots on the grate?

[@DJLabradors]

Hey will you be coming back to Michigan again soon.? We are 2 hours away and would love to come see you but this week is slammed! Hope you come back to MI and do another demo!

[@AbbyMom100]

I have to ask. Did you leave in the tuning plates for the Old Country Pit you have? Did you adjust them further, take them out?

[@TheOriginalFaxon]

I have a thin walled vertical offset from Amazon that was made in China, it cooks fairly evenly from side to side but the temps are higher the higher up you go in the smoke box. I've used temp probes and a couple dozen cooks now to dial in how it cooks at various temps, but I do wonder what would happen if I pushed the heat up enough to cook biscuits and did this test. I have trouble getting my smoker to that temp without flames literally licking into the smoke box from the fire box, so I'm betting it would be rather informative. I wonder if there is a version of this test I can do though at my normal smoking temperatures.

[@dabigeasybbq]

biscuit test at 225F should take about at least 20.5 minutes depending on your elevation to cook biscuits. I always do biscuits on the grill. You made me think and Jeremy should have ran all the offsets at same temperature

[@rok4220]

See you Saturday, tix purchased already

[@barbruhque]

I did this test a couple of weeks ago on my Outlaw Patio Smoker and the results of it blow these three away. Check one out sometime, Jeremy!

[@alvinsmith8250]

I wish Lone Star Grillz could have been in this test.

[@bobnewhart4318]

Your biscuit test with the volunteer Offset Smoker was spot-on you followed the directions on the biscuit container and you followed the grill manufacturer's directions on how to run the volunteer and in the end the volunteer toasted the biscuits. People just seem to get upset when Real World test gets ran on their equipment and it exposes their short comings. None of the other grills were charred as badly as the volunteer at around the same temps so the volunteer was the issue not the experimenter. Keep go the good work

[@bdjm8595]

[@joseluismendoza9916]

i would honestly like to see more biscuits on the goldee's and franklin pits because going back and seeing jirby's video, the goldee's pit has an insanely small hot spot compared to the rest of the smoker that i dont think was showcased as well here

[@cwins91]

I think he showcased Goldee's perfectly, especially running all on the higher side of temps and relatively the same degrees F. And he provided the percentage of fail to success ratio. TMG being 62.5%, Franklin being 80%, and Goldee's being 85.7% success.. Meaning Goldee's came in 1st, Franklin 2nd and TMG 3rd.

[@jacobflores8666]

@@cwins91 Sure, the Goldee's pit came in first for this test quantitatively but the Franklin pit had better qualitative results. The biscuits in the hot spot of the Goldee's pit burnt to a crisp but only the edge of the biscuits in the hot spot facing the firebox of the Franklin pit got crisped up. The results would be would worse for the Goldee's pit if biscuits were in the water pan's place.

[@traumavfl6629]

Surprised to see the Mad Scientist throwing the scientific method to the wind. My understanding on fluid and thermodynamics is limited, but with both ends open on the stack and fire door, it would seem that you would have very different flow, especially with one having a water pan. Apples to oranges comparison, despite what the manufacturer says is preferred

[@brahtrumpwonbigly7309]

The scentific method was applied here. The question was not which one was the most evenly heated when set up the exact same as all the others The question was which one was capable of the most even heating, period. That does not automatically mean they will have the exact same setup under any circumstances. Is a prius faster than a Hellcat? It's an apples to oranges comparison, but the question was not how fast can they go with a specific number of cylinders, or noth being hybrids or whatever else you could come up with. The question was which was faster. Using manufacturer recommendations specific to either vehicle would absolutely be appropriate there. The real answer is that you'd have to test them all in a myriad of setups before determining what their true potential was, as they are all different in different ways.

Just wanted to throw a rib method I developed for drum smokers (or any vertical charcoal really) in case you still had that pit barrel cooker and maybe wanted to do some comparisons. Season with lowrys and pepper. Hang ribs in smoker at about 275 for 3-4 hours until color and tenderness are where you want them (they can be slightly right at this point, but should be close to where you want them) Wrap in foil with butter and sauce of your choice (I use a modified Franklin expresso style sauce personally) and rest in cambro for at least an hour. It’s pretty central Texas inspired but in a charcoal cooker. Would be cool to see it compared to real central Texas on an offset side by side.

[@dabigeasybbq]

Snow's bbq in Lexington, Texas cooks ribs over charcoal, and so does Kreuz Market in Lockhart, Texas to name a few. Also, in Memphis Charlie Vergos' Rendezvous bbq does ribs over charcoal.

[@67buick]

@@dabigeasybbq pretty sure snows and kreuz both cook over coals, not charcoal. Almost everyone in the Carolina’s and Tennessee cook that way too, so I’d guess that place in Memphis does. I’ve never been in the Memphis area so I don’t know it. Most back yard cooks aren’t gonna burn down splits into coals to feed a block pit (tho some do obviously). Im talking about cooking on vertical charcoal cookers like uds, Weber smoker mountains with rib hangers etc. They’re both direct heat methods with the same goal, render fat to fall into the fire and create a different flavor in the smoke. When I say central Texas method I mean what is widely considered that today. Of course there used to be a lot more direct heat block pits in Texas, but it’s not seen as much anymore there.

[@dabigeasybbq]

@@67buick my mistake- they do use coals from burn barrel, and I know Rendezous uses charcoal. My comparison should have been that ribs on offset do not compare to ribs cooked over charcoal, lump, or coals which are better.

@@dabigeasybbqThanks for the reply. Yeah I saw that video back when it came out. Unfortunately, there’s no talk of airflow within the chamber, just that air moves through the elbow, which is fairly obvious. I’m more interested in how air circulates and moves within the chamber. Poor airflow could lead to stagnant smoke and not the most efficient cook. I doubt that’s the case, but it would be nice to know for sure. Thanks again.

[@stefan-t--]

really impressed with the franklin based on this test. that is remarkably well designed. I thought the goldees would be the one in first just by looking at them.

[@smokescouts]

the Franklin hot spot has to be right below the water pan rack, and the cooking surface doesn’t start until after that, giving extra space from the firebox to the start of the cooking surface unlike the other pits. Franklin’s design is fool proof and perfect for a beginner - no airflow settings to mess with and no cooking grate over the hot spot. However, with more advanced fire management skills, the ability to adjust the stack damper and door for different cook settings is a must have option for me.

[@Ahglock]

Depends on how you look at it I guess. Goldees had more space that came out fine. Sure there is one narrow band you avoid putting something in but that leaves a lot of space to cook with. The franklin pit you could pretty much use all of its space but that space was smaller than the usable on the goldees. The volunteer had the most space that came out great but the most space that burned things. As long as you know that though it gives the most usable space of the 3. At least for biscuits.
