wow ... what a novel idea

Drumming up simplicity

According to Corso, drum smokers create an efficient form factor for smoking. With the fire in a drum smoker located at the bottom of the smoker, smoke and heat simply rise into the food versus having to work across the smoke chamber, like in a traditional offset smoker

“With the Bronco, we wanted to utilize this efficiency and simplicity while adding precision and control into the mix,” said Corso. “The Bronco drum smoker provides users with precision control over cooking temperatures, allowing them to easily adjust the air intake and exhaust to hold a steady temperature for extended periods of time.”

Looks like R2D2's naughty cousin

But: it does come with wheels, it does come with a shelf and it does come with some place to hang that rack when not in use AND it comes with hanging hooks. At about the same price point.

Wonder about it's longevity though ie wall construction as compared to WSM

The reason why I don't own a drum is that it seems like a bear to clean. The WSM design makes so much more sense. And elegant. There so much stuff sticking out of the drum.

I've toyed with the idea of building one over the years, but burning out a drum in by backyard isn't an option. I'm sure the fire department would be over pretty quick.
