    Landmann post's their new GOSM smokers on their site

    Boy, looking at these prices on the wide series makes me feel better about my Bigblock purchase several months ago.  Cool features  on the new versions and I like the smoke stack they added. http://www.landmann-usa.com/online-store/gas-smokers.aspx

    GOSM Low Temps

    Make sure to adjust the the fuel/air mixture ring. This made a noticable difference on mine and saved fuel by getting the flame where it should be.

    New Smoke Hollow 44" Dual-Door Smoker - Photos Added

    Not too bad. . Maybe they could have gone with one cast pan that covers both burners (would be really heavy though). All in all, I like the build and all the accesories that come with it, but dual chip pans and dual burners would be too much going on for me.

    Master Forge vs GOSM vs Master Built Wide

    I was stuck on the Master forge @ $199 (which is now $179 at Bass Pro !!)  and the Big Block @ $299 myself. The Master Forge is the clear value winner here IMO. I  went on to read about all the mods that many have had to do with the chip box and what not on the Master Forge.  I really didnt like...

    What to buy after GOSM smoker

    She was pretty tight lipped. She did say it would be even larger and would include a smoke stack along with some other updates. That is all the info I could gather.

    What to buy after GOSM smoker

    The lady I spoke with at Landmann said they had a new GOSM "Bigger" Bigblock coming out this late spring or early summer. She mentioned it would have a few new features as well as a smoke stack. Now that may be worth the wait!

    Sealing the door on my Masterbuilt Propane Smoker.

    I had a little seeping from the top of my GOSM door, I know its a different brand, but they seem to have the same designed folded edge on the door. Anyway, the folded portion of mine wasnt an actual flat bend and it was left at a small angle possibly to help to door seal and give a tight fit...

    Help in purchasing new Gas smoker

    Well. I put two Chickens, a 9lb Butt and about 20 links of Italian Sausage in over the weekend and this thing truly did an awesome job. I went through a small sack of Cherry chunks and the smoke box worked like a charm.  I had a little leak at the top of the door, but a hammer and a wooden block...

    Help in purchasing new Gas smoker

    Thanks SQWIB. Yeah, I wish I could have saved 100 bucks as well. Will send Dutch a note once I get a batch made. I think I will leave the inside alone unless there is a benefit from spraying it. BTW SQWIB. My water pan seems really close to the chip box. Is this normal?   Thanks

    Help in purchasing new Gas smoker

    Well I got the box in and had time to slap it together during my lunch break. I was suprised I actually received a GOSM instead of a Landmann branded box. I cant see any differences in them from SQWIBS pictures on his site. I had one of the chromed side frames that hod the racks tweaked a...

    Thanks for all the replys. I actually learnned something yesterday after a conversation with worker at Landmann.  Landmann built all of GOSM's equipment before they went under which explains their close similarities. They also informed me that they have another smoker coming out this summer with...
