I purchased the cottongin Harvester as my first drum smoker, and 4 years later it hasn't let me down. Beautiful design, and fire management is easy to control! Easy to get to temp and quick recovery time if your temperature goes up or down. Love the door for easy access to your charcoal basket, and water pan if you use one to cook. Since using the Harvester we've landed a bunch of top 10 and top 5 calls in the competition bbq circuit.
Do yourself a solid and purchase one as your next smoker. You will not be disappointed!!
and none of them match the quality of cotton gin smokers. The welding, metal quality and precision metal work are far better than most. I love the front door on the harvester. If makes it so much easier to add to for fire basket, add wood chunks of or pellets. The wheels are bigger than most, and being slightly offset to the side, the entire thing rolls more easily and with more balance. From beginner to seasoned pit master, cotton gins are the best way to go.
We added the harvester to our competition smoker rotation, and it quickly became our go to drum smoker. We love the fact that once the smoker hits the desired temperature, it holds for hours and hours. No issues with quality and love the hanger system which allows us to quickly move the grate up and down depending on what is needed. We chose the harvester in part due to it be 100% American made. We also fell in love with the access door and the ease of adding more fuel or just a chunk of wood.
The Cotton Gin Harvester Smoker is an absolute showstopper! Not only is it built like a tank, but it’s also a true piece of art. The craftsmanship and attention to detail are second to none—you can tell this was made by people who care about quality.
Functionally, it performs just as impressively as it looks. The temperature control is steady and reliable, making long cooks effortless. I’ve smoked brisket, ribs, and pork shoulder on it, and every single cook has come out tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. It holds heat beautifully, and the airflow is dialed in perfectly.
On top of that, it’s a conversation piece. Every time I fire it up, at a competition people stop to take a look. The front door is a game changer for adding extra wood chunks or charcoal if needed. This is a professional-grade smoker—truly one of a kind.
If you’re serious about barbecue and want something that’s as unique as it is functional, the Cotton Gin Harvester Smoker is worth every penny. Highly recommend!
From the craftsmanship to paint job and how well its cooks. The Harvester is hands down the best drum on the market. Can’t go wrong with using it in the backyard or on the competition trail. It will not fail you!
