Where Craftmanship Meets Smoke

1836 Smokers is a family-owned BBQ smoker manufacturer proudly rooted in Waxahachie, Texas, where hard work still means something and quality is built by hand. We’re a small-town company with deep Texas pride, creating premium smokers for restaurants, caterers, competition teams, and backyard pitmasters who care about doing barbecue the right way. Around here, we believe good food brings people together, and a great smoker should be built to last for generations.

Every smoker we build starts with American steel and is crafted by skilled fabricators and welders who take real pride in their trade. We don’t rush builds or cut corners. We focus on solid craftsmanship, dependable performance, and the kind of attention to detail you can feel the moment you open the firebox door.

We’ve worked alongside seasoned pitmasters to design smokers that honor traditional wood-fired cooking while improving the things that matter most—airflow, heat control, and consistency. Our specialized airflow technology helps create clean burns, steady temperatures, and even cooking from one end of the chamber to the other. That means less fighting your fire and more time doing what you love.

Whether you’re feeding your family in the backyard, cooking for a packed event, or serving customers every weekend, 1836 Smokers is built for folks who take pride in their barbecue.
