[@GaShooter1]

Giveaway sounds awesome. Another great video from Kosmo!

[@keithwebster7118]

I used your rubs and injections for the first time last weekend in a BBQ cook off here in Corpus. Out of over 60 teams I got 8th in ribs and 11th in brisket. Used the dirty bird on the ribs and both beef injections for the brisket. I will be getting more from now on. Big thanks!!

[@KosmosQ]

Congratulations

[@SmokedReb]

What a cool and fun video, thanks for sharing the experience!

[@manoahumada]

Thank you for reviewing this smoker! I've been wondering if it was worth a purchase! I've learned so much from you guys!!🤙🏼🤙🏼🔥🔥

[@vonkytonk9754]

Just saw that cooker at Lowe's yesterday and played around with it. Seems well built so it was cool to see you fire it up. Not gonna beat around the bush here, def do a giveaway! Good stuff brother, I'll keep watching for sure

[@davidzuefeldt7351]

Thank you for all the videos! That does look like a nice cooker. I can not tell you how much I have learned from you guys. I am loaded for bear with my all the Kosmo's Q rubs and injections and ready for the next competition. Thanks again!

[@joshhaywood0915]

Great video as always Kosmo. I was just at Lowe's yesterday taking a look at this. AF is sending me to Guam in July so I may need to downsize my smoker.

[@TheDHWphotography]

Great video! You guys have all the fun!

[@kellypitre69]

Been waiting for a cook review on this thing . You should definitely pay it forward . More people pumping out Q in the world the better the world shall be .

[@panderson5828]

Love your videos. I’ve been excited to tune in every Saturday. I’m thinking you should compare this to the PBC. Ultimate rib off challenge.

[@jgbrock19]

Been looking at these at my local Wal-Mart! Love a little more review on it, like a brisket or pork shoulder. And of course would love to win it!

[@vr697getta]

Great review! I've had that smoker for just under a year. Everything I've cooked came out amazing. 12 hour brisket smoke no problem!

[@Freko1970]

What do you do? Do you fill it up with lump or briquettes and don't have to load it up with charcoal until its done?

[@1982MCI]

@@Freko1970 correct. On longer cooks like a brisket you may need to add more depending upon how you managed your air flow

[@eric10438]

Always a good day when you can field test a smoker. Keep up the great work. 👍

[@kylegreen3728]

It would be nice to have that much fun at work! I'd say give it away! Would look nice next to my Oklahoma Joe's Longhorn!

[@raymondt9381]

Great review! Great channel! You guys are the definition of smoking BBQ 💯🔥👌

[@BigFun4Life]

Kosmo,great video man.I been reading about them barrel smokers,thanks for the video......

[@mikellwatkins6807]

Kos - great videos! Keep up the hard wrk. Love your products. That bad boy would be great smokin up here in the Rocky Mtns of Utah 😆😆😆 Keep the videos comin bro - love em and enjoy all of them

[@BBQSteve1]

I bought it! Just got done seasoning it. It holds temp like crazy. Temp goes up and down fast with closing and opening dampers. I have zero leaks and I must have got a new version because I was lucky enough to get the built right airflow cuz it fit like a charm. I put a little less than half full briquettes in the basket and it is still running temp 4 hours later at dampers wide open. Overall, glad I purchased this. The hinged lid is what set me over the edge between this and the pbc.

[@1982MCI]

I’m picking mine up today and can not wait to start cooking on it! I’m so tired of not being able to have good bbq all the time and I came across this unit and will be perfect for me. I had to get rid of my big smoker when I moved cross country and didn’t have room on the truck for it so I’ve been trying to find bbq here in NC and bless these sweet fly’s over here, they sure talk a good game but when it comes to actually cooking good, they need to hang it up! I’d rather order bbq in from Canada than to ever eat at one of these bbq joints here again!! So, it’s fixen to be on buddy! I sure hope these barrels turn out as good of bbq as y’all say it does cause I’m fricn hungry man!!

[@BIGCHEVZ71]

I appreciate all your videos. This drum smoker would go great beside my Oklahoma Joe offset.

[@richsherie1843]

Great video! I really appreciate the demonstrations you do. Definitely give it away!!! I could really use one!!!

[@acruz1740]

Kosmo ! Awesome video!!! I I think you should definitely give away ! I love cooking on the drums !!!

[@matthewallen4515]

I'm glad to see a review on this. I am considering getting one

[@harpoon308]

Thanks for the video. I bought one on the 4th and have seasoned it. Looking forward to making a nice St. Louis style rib with a combo of Jerk seasoning and a hickory bbq glaze.

[@danielbrinegar1917]

Great video always have great Information and the best ingredients in your ribs. Few weeks ago I've purchased your dirty bird and your GSP and there the best I've ever used

[@SimpleAtHomeQ]

[@allieandbo]

I'd love to have that bad boy Kosmo! It would be my first smoker! Killer video man.

[@walkerrichmire4226]

Love the video,I'm thinking about getting one of these drums. But what was the problem with the down tub? Once again love all your videos.

[@billusa3026]

[@woodypilgrim242]

[@anthonywoodcock5791]

Good stuff Kosmo!!! I would love to own that bad boy!!!

[@kingssmokinggrilling1766]

I purchased one of these smokers about 3-4...and it's one of the best smokers I have ever cook on. Using your product awesome St. Louis ribs oh man, some of the best ribs I've ever had.

[@thomasballard2632]

The ribs looked mouthwatering..... My wife has done told me.... No more grills for a while..... but Yes..... Giving it away would be Great ! Outstanding Video !♨️👍😎

[@chassjohnson4766]

Awesome video! Bro BBQ Master......send that cooker in my direction and I will use it with my new container of DIRTY BIRD HOT! Absolutely love that rub. 👍🏼🍺👍🏼

[@codyellis2390]

I just bought a PBC a few weeks ago. It would look nice sitting right next to it! Love your videos! Happy to be buying products from a fellow Okie!

[@KosmosQ]

You going to love it, it is a dream to cook on

[@TXBurnout1]

Sweet! Been wondering about this one. \m/

[@dodgeramwax]

Awesome video bud! keep them coming

[@tonyhubbard3397]

I've had mine for 2 years I've done ribs Hams and turkey. This is the best smoker ever in my opinion. I love the way it holds the temperature this is a total tank.

[@boss123400]

I have a 1998 Oklahoma Joe's offset. Very versatile. I smoke with it in the traditional firebox method. I grill with it by placing charcoal in the barrel. Up here in Ponca City.

[@jayhickey5012]

I went down to my local Lowes and unfortunately they dont keep these in stock. The fella told me its special order only, man I was kinda bummed out but then I remembered I live on Maui and that made me feel better lol! Love your channel brother keep that great content flowing.

[@coryellis9480]

Definitely give it away. Be a great prize. Great funny informative video. Thanks.

[@westfourtwenty]

Thanks for the video! Nice smoker.. think I might need to get one of these bad boys. Cheers!

[@philipmeadows5727]

Great vid brother! Yeap, I say give it away to a long time loyal subscriber,, hint, hint. Keep the Q Alive!

[@kevinpack1454]

Awesome video! I passed by these at my local Lowes this past weekend. I have a Pit Barrel and wanted to get your thoughts on how these 2 compare!

[@chriswarren1345]

I love my Bronco! Great video! Thanks for sharing.

[@EasyBakeBBQ]

KOSMO, Another great video. You should give it away, deliver it to the winner personally, and put on a class on how to use it. For that maybe even Oklahoma Joe's would Sponsor it :)

[@tlmart79]

that's awesome. love your videos. would love to have that smoker.

[@andyvasquez7890]

Send that bad boy to meeeee!!! Lol awesome video always enjoy them!

[@matthewkennedy2597]

Definitely a giveaway! I have a Highland and I love it, and have been wanting a drum, but I’m weird and like keeping everything matching, so this OK Joe drum would fit right in!

[@SpaceCadetSmurf]

thanks for the video man! how would you say it is compared to a PBC?

[@KosmosQ]

Love the PBC it is my go to for sure

[@nicholasfox8044]

Saw this in Walmart yesterday and thought "Wow, I really want that". So i come here to youtube to see if there are any videos on it. Yours is the first I watched. Give it away! To me, please! :)

[@nicholasfox8044]

Just realized i missed this by a mile... lol

[@BBQSteve1]

I cannot begin to thank you for doing this video! You've sealed my decision.

[@thehungryhussey]

Nice video my man! You and your buddies reminds me of the way me and my buddies act. Haha

[@jasonblevins1890]

I made my own UDS from a 40 gallon steel drum. It works great! Only wish it was a heavier gauge of steel. BTW, I love your BBQ rubs and use them often.

[@jaysonescoe5799]

Damn Kosmo you went old school! With the Zima reference!! Fun day with the kids huh haha.

[@frankgerberding9798]

Great Video! I like the size and it held its heat. Ribs looked fantastic Love to own it.

[@galax83061]

Thanks for the video review. I have been debating on buying one of these smokers.

[@robc.4321]

My next purchase. Love your vids man and your products

[@kevinhollister3745]

Great video, real cool of you to give it away to a subscriber rock on!

[@jamestalley5310]

I love trying new smokers just can't afford to lolbut love the video man keep it up... I been dieing to try and cook some stuff the way you do

[@OcAirsoft]

Solid video quality for only 45,000 subs! I need to step up my quality 😂

[@uncledickie]

Just bought one, getting a pit barrel next week just because I want one of them too. Nice video sir

[@justinharrison5159]

I'll take it off your hands for you brother, I don't mind lol. Love your videos Kosmo, I use all your products at home. Best out there in my opinion! Bless you guys!

[@michaelwilliams-on1fh]

love your videos, I just recently bought the bronco from Walmart for $92, one of the best cookers I have really. My line up is a Yoder 640s, Grilla Grills OG, Kong and I also ordered the Bronco pro hopefully it will be here soon.

[@cynycman]

Great video. My brother lives in Edmond so since we have a connection now, I'd love to give that drum a spin!!

[@orlandoavalos76]

Great Products....Awesome Videos...!!!

[@garyleofsky116]

Just went to a BBQ cookoff this weekend, had my but kicked by guys who had barrel cookers, would love to have one. Good friend told me about your stuff been using it and it the best.

[@papalarrysbbq9857]

Man you wanna ship that to So Cal I'll take it..lol. Cool video as always Brotha Kosmo

[@rodagerter7813]

Just cooked rib's for the first time on the pit barrel, wife said I over season the ribs, what do you think about this???? Thanks from Ohio

[@mikekaffenberger6179]

Y’all kill me! 😂 I wouldn’t mind taking it off your hands next time I’m in there!

[@colecon1012]

Great video!

[@richarddaley6403]

I saw it at Lowe's and almost bought one. Is there a way of adding more charcoal and wood while you're cooking

[@patrick-pk9bk]

No but theres no reason to. I did an 11 hr smoke with mine and never touched it. still had coal left for another hour or so if i needed it

[@davesager9253]

Got one for anniversary gift from the wife and love it

[@smokingtarheel3003]

I've been looking at them at Walmart too. Were you using lump charcoal? Y'all have a blast and I have a blast watching your videos.

[@nickervin6169]

I use the Bronco as my every day smoker. Have for a little over a year now, and I absolutely love it. My favorite thing to do is hang ribs or chickens on it.

[@coreybouyea7226]

Kosmo great review I think you should give it away I have been wanting to cook on a drum

[@jeremiah01]

Looks nice! Please give it away :) I don't have a drum cooker yet and would love to have this one to try out this summer!

[@jaredwall7335]

I have a Highland Oklahoma Joe smoker it has taken a lot to make it a reliable cooker, I've been in the market for a drum cooker would you recommend this one

[@michaelsoileau1820]

I just bought the bronco & am very impressed with it. Thanks to your video and a couple of others I contacted Char Grill about the upper chamber pipe by adding a comment when I ordered a cover. A couple of days later they phoned me to let me know they were posting me the modified pipe at no charge, again just a couple of days later it arrived and fit perfectly. That's what I call customer service. Thanks for your video & I will look at your seasonings. Why did you hang the ribs?

[@CRsLouisianaBBQandmore]

Sign it and give it away! Awesome video!

[@dktrpepr]

Dig the quick video. I've been looking at barrel cookers lately and think I'm still leaning toward the PBC. What you think Kosmo?

[@KosmosQ]

PBC are sold as crap brother and they won't let you down.

[@jasonzimmer8]

It would look great next to my Pit Barrel Cooker. You should do a comparison, side by side cook between the 2. Same size, same price. It would be interesting to so if there is a clear winner.

[@chomps2006]

Kosmo! Love your videos and your merch! Killer Honey bee seasoning is the bees knees! You should raffle off the smoker with some goodies and donate the money to a good cause! A dollar a ticket, 3 for 5!! Keep up the awesome video and quality rubs!

[@arniecribbjr.6718]

Hot Dirty Bird ribs look amazing as usual!! I’ve never owned a drum smoker but would gladly volunteer to be the new owner!! Lol.

[@JayDayC127]

Great video. I say you give the thing away. I’ll head north to OK to pick it up. I’ll bring Texas beer for ya. 😜

[@smokinmecrazysteakteam6608]

Been wondering about those. They look solid actually.

[@jodydavis3531]

Great video, you guys seem to have a lot of fun. If you need to get rid of that pit I can think of a place in Tennessee it would look good at and be used.🤞

[@coreybouyea7226]

Kosmo do you think that the bronco drum is as good as a gateway drum

[@smokinokibbqjefusmith8016]

Awesome Video gents!

[@BRYKS22]

Bought mine last year and i love it!!!

[@essentiallyeli3710]

Looks like a decent cooker, I wish I could afford one. Ever since I started dialysis I just can’t seem to catch up with everything. Thanks for sharing your videos, I enjoy them.

[@kspevak1]

Matt Hernandez, I know you don’t know me but I’d love to help out. Lost my Dad to cancer about 8 years ago. Maybe we can coordinate something and I can get something for you to smoke some meats on. Let me know your thoughts.

[@essentiallyeli3710]

Kris, I appreciate generosity but it is not necessary. I have an older ceramic cooker, it needs a little tlc and a new gasket. But it works okay for me. I really do appreciate the offer, sorry to hear about your father by the way. God bless you my friend.

[@timmartinez135]

You hit this out of the ball park!

[@russells_world]

Been eyeing up a drum type smoker , this would be a great giveaway!

[@xxlsutigersxx55]

Im thinking about purchasing a barrel smoker. Which brand is your favorite and which do you recomend??

[@yogibear5809]

Good video Just stopped by Kosmos Had to restock my BBQ supplies Might as well use Kosmos BBQ rubs

[@zebd4635]

Great vid! Kosmo have you ever tried apple butter on ribs? It gives the ribs a great flavor.

[@KosmosQ]

No, and I love apple butter!

[@davisrob]

I have a OKJ Highland offset and a UDS that I built ma-self... This drum cooker looks top notch! Send 'er over!
