William Kingsville, Texas | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ 5.0 Great SmokerI have had the Chubby G3for a few days now. It arrived in less than a week. It was packaged well and had unboxing instructions attached to the top of the box. It was well secured to a wooden pallet and was in perfect condition. I followed the instructions I found on YouTube in cleaning and preparing the smoker for use. I also bought and installed the casters which I would highly recommend. The next day I started it with charcoal and Applewood chunks. With an hour it was holding a rock steady 250. I put some ribs and split chicken breasts on for about 4 hrs. It was the best food I have ever smoked/bbq. The smoker held 250 for approximately 6 and a half hours. This was on half a bag of charcoal and four Applewood chunks. According to the website, you currently cannot order the made in America G2 smoker due to lack of materials. I was thinking about waiting for the G2 but went ahead the G3. I would buy the G3 again in a heartbeat. Great product and fast shipping. AAA++++ | Was This Helpful? |
Big C Cedar Rapids, Iowa | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ 5.0 Service is fantasticJust got my Backwoods. 3400. Called for some general questions about my firebox door. Issac walk me thru steps and it looks awesome. Seasons on Saturday and smoke on Super Bowl Sunday. I own my own business and when you call and a rel person answers the phone...I am sold. | Was This Helpful? |
OzarkSmoker Southwest Missouri | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ 5.0 Holds temp in even bad weather. Buy this smoker.I purchased this Backwoods G3 from BBQ Guys and it was to my door in less than 10 days. I was anxious to try it out but with cold windy weather in the forecast I was worried about performance so I decided to run a test. On a cold Saturday, 30 degrees and 20 to 30mph wind gusts I set up the smoker outside and put a small batch of coal in. It held it's temp at 150F without any problem so I set up a full tray of charcoal and wood and dumped in about half chimney of lit coals. All told it was probably 6 or 7 pounds total of charcoal. Then I filled the water tray with the hottest water my sink could put out. Within half an hour the G3 was sitting at 225 degrees despite the wind and cold. I made two racks of baby backs and about 12 chicken thighs for my first cook, in weather that my previous offset smoker could never have performed in. It held 225 to 250 for 8 hours. If you're considering this smoker I would not hesitate to buy. | Was This Helpful? |
Cj Clermont Florida | ★★★★★ ★★★★★ 4.0 Backwoods chubby g3I purchased the g3 chubby about a month ago I was a little skeptical because it is made overseas but I figured I would try it. So I received it in a timely manner it was packaged well no damage set it up with my fireboard to control the heat and did a burn off ran it at .I must say I was impressed this thing came up to temp in 35 min and ran perfect when set at 225 it got no hotter than 230 and no lower than 218 .I did talk to backwoods before and they gave me some tricks as far as water pan goes they are wonderful to deal with. So I have done 2 pork butt a short rib plate and a 12lb brisket everything was spectacular the only thing I wish it had was a port for cables other than that it's great | Was This Helpful? |

When will my item arrive?
Once shipped, items usually arrive within 3-5 business days. While UPS and FedEx are our carriers for smaller items, be aware that larger items and orders are shipped via freight. The freight process is a bit more complicated than what we’ve all come to expect for small parcels, so it’s important that you’re prepared and understand what’s required of you well before delivery day.
- Most freight products ship on a pallet
- Some carriers will call to schedule a delivery window, while others will deliver the shipment to a reasonably accessible location closest to your residence (their goal is to deliver as near a garage door as they can).
- We’ll specify which process you can expect in your shipping confirmation email.
For carriers that schedule delivery appointments:
Carriers that schedule delivery appointments require you to be home for delivery and provide your signature. The delivery is made with a semi-truck with lift gate services, and the shipment is dropped off at the curb. If you authorize the shipping company to leave the delivery without a signature, BBQGuys can’t be held responsible for damages that occur during delivery. As complicated as this process may seem, we’ve only scratched the surface here — please review our detailed guide to freight delivery so there are no surprises when a freight shipment heads your way.
For carriers that deliver without an appointment:
Carriers that deliver without an appointment don’t require you to be home or set up a delivery window, and you aren’t required to sign for the pallet(s). Instead of scheduling an appointment, arranging your schedule to be home for the delivery, and signing to confirm receipt, you can sit back and let your items come to you. If you’re home at the time of the drop-off, you can request the driver place your delivery in the garage; if you’re out of the house, the driver will leave it near the garage or doorstep.
