Are you serious about meat smoking and American BBQ? Then the Char-Griller Grand Champ™ Offset Smoker #8250 is the grill you need. Quality construction for ultimate durability and performance. Charcoal Basket included Felt Gaskets on all lids and doors prevents heat and smoke leakage Upper Cooking Grate as well as the Main Grate Charcoal Grate + Ash Pan in the main chamber - unique to any offset we have ever seen Easy Dump Side Firebox ash pan Extreme-duty steel construction ( 113 kgs of metal! .) Extra-large side damper and smoke stack damper We've got a Grand Champ on display in our Offset Smoker Showroom, along with our other offsets, so you are welcome to visit us and compare our wide selection of smokers. With 1200 square inches of cooking space, expanded metal cooking grates, an included charcoal basket, and felt gaskets seals on all lids and doors, this is a seriously hard-working smoker. Made out of extreme duty steel, it’ll last you season after season. The ash pan in the main chamber makes this the most unique offset that we have seen - you can easily use the main chamber for conventional direct bbq grilling AND get the ash out easily. All other offsets don't have an ashpan, so the ash falls onto the bottom of the barrel, and you need to scoop it out manually - and this is the key - if you leave it in there the ash will rust through the bottom of your barrel. So, having the ash pan is a really valuable feature. Total Cooking Area: 1200 Square Inches Primary Cooking Area: 780 sq.in / 4300 sq.cm - 48cm Deep x 90cm Wide Upper Cooking Area: 420 sq.in / 2600 sq.cm - 29cm Deep x 90cm Wide Both cooking grates are Expanded Metal Grates Heavy Duty Construction, 113kg total weight Charcoal Basket Included Side Fire Box Included Folding Front Shelf 2 x 10" inch Metal Wheels - 77cm Axle Width Easy Dump™ Ash Pan Dual Dampers Char-Griller Product Code #8250 Overall Size: 183cm Wide x 85cm Deep (with shelf in up position) x 148cm High

Made a big mistake buying the Char-Griller Grand Champ XD, Came scratched all over, No gasket seal from offset to smoker so leaks smoke from offset firebox like mad, Smoker door is bent out of shape so smoke leaks, Chimney pipe from smoker isnt stable and no gasket seal so leaks smoke from the joint, There's more smoke coming out of everywhere else rather then the smoke pipe lol, Its really badly made. Not worth £750. Was guided to buy this from the sales person telling me it's the best in its price range. Trust me it's not.

We are sorry to learn of these issues with this Grand Champ. This experience with this smoker is not typical of this product, as witnessed by our other customer reviews of it. Our records show that we offered to collect this smoker from the customer and process a full refund, but that he declined to take us up on that offer.

Great BBQ, well made - quality steel. Please follow instructions during the assembly process - it does speed up assembly! I have used it only a few times but there is plenty of space on the grate, so can cook for a lot more people and do not have to spend hours cooking it. The upper grate is really useful, so you can rest some of the meat if the fire is too hot instead of burning it. It is too close to the bottom grate and makes it difficult to reach pieces of meat that are positioned at the back of the bottom grate. I have ordered extra long bbq tonges so it should not be an issue. Really easy to empty burned charcoal after it cooled down. Great piece of kit.
