BBQ Barrels & Smokers – Backyard to Commercial

BarrelSales.com offers the most complete selection of BBQ barrels and smokers. From portable kettle grills for camping to 500-gallon trailer-mounted offset smokers for competition BBQ and restaurants, our smokers are built from heavy-gauge steel barrels with professional-grade welding and high-temperature paint. Prices start at $59.

Half-Barrel Grills – The Classic Backyard Smoker

Our half-barrel BBQ grill ($89) is made from a 30-gallon steel drum cut lengthwise, with a hinged lid, chrome-plated cooking grate, charcoal tray, and sturdy legs. Perfect for backyard grilling and smoking for 4-6 people. The portable kettle grill ($59) is a 15-gallon mini barrel with folding legs – ideal for camping, tailgating, and beach trips.

Vertical Barrel Smokers – Set It and Forget It

The vertical smoker barrel ($149) is a 55-gallon drum converted into a upright smoker with two cooking racks, water pan, and thermometer. Heat and smoke rise from the bottom, creating even temperatures. Excellent for ribs, chicken, turkey, fish, and jerky. Holds 6-8 racks of ribs.

Offset Smokers – The Pitmaster's Choice

Our offset smoker barrel ($249) features a separate 85-gallon firebox attached to the main chamber, creating indirect heat and smoke that flows horizontally across the cooking surface. This design prevents direct flame contact, making it ideal for low-and-slow cooking (225-275°F). Perfect for whole brisket, pork shoulder, and whole hog.

Reverse Flow Smoker – Even Heat Top to Bottom

The reverse flow smoker (120 gallons) at $899 is our most advanced backyard smoker. A steel plate under the cooking grate forces smoke to travel the length of the smoker twice before exiting, eliminating hot spots and creating even temperatures across the entire cooking surface. This is the ultimate smoker for competition BBQ.

Commercial Smokers – For Restaurants & Catering

BarrelSales.com supplies commercial 250-gallon offset smokers ($2,800) and 500-gallon trailer-mounted smokers ($8,000) for professional use. These are built with 1/4-inch steel plate, heavy-duty fireboxes, multiple cooking racks, and trailer axles for mobility. Call +1 346 636 0501 for freight quotes and customization.

BBQ Smoker Pricing & Selection

Shipping & Ordering

Small BBQ barrels (portable kettle, half-barrel, vertical smoker) ship via UPS/FedEx in 3-7 days within the USA. Large smokers (offset, reverse flow, commercial, trailer) require LTL freight shipping. Call +1 346 636 0501 for freight quotes. The minimum order is $200 product subtotal — most backyard smokers are below $200 individually, so add multiple items or combine with other barrel types.

Care & Maintenance Tips

Season your new smoker before first use: coat interior with cooking oil, heat to 300°F for 2 hours. Clean grates after each use. Store with cover to prevent rust. For offset smokers, clean the firebox and remove ash after each cook. With proper care, barrel smokers last 10+ years.

BBQ Barrel FAQ

What types of BBQ barrels does BarrelSales.com sell?

BarrelSales.com sells 7 BBQ barrel types: portable kettle grill ($59), half-barrel BBQ grill ($89), vertical smoker ($149), offset smoker ($249), reverse flow smoker ($899), commercial 250-gallon offset smoker ($2,800), and 500-gallon trailer smoker ($8,000).

What is the difference between an offset smoker and a vertical smoker?

Offset smokers have a separate firebox attached to the side, creating indirect heat and smoke that flows through the main chamber. Vertical smokers have the firebox directly below the cooking chamber, with heat and smoke rising vertically. Offset smokers are better for large cuts (brisket, pork shoulder), while vertical smokers excel at ribs, chicken, and jerky.

Do you sell commercial BBQ smokers for restaurants?

What is a reverse flow smoker?

A reverse flow smoker has a steel plate under the cooking grate that forces smoke to travel the length of the smoker twice before exiting. This creates even temperatures across the entire cooking surface — no hot spots. BarrelSales.com sells a 120-gallon reverse flow smoker at $899.

What is the minimum order for BBQ barrels?

The minimum order at BarrelSales.com is $200 product subtotal. Most backyard smokers are under $200 individually, so add multiple items or combine with other barrel types to reach the minimum.
