Great smoker - retains heat very well
This is my third smoker that I’ve purchased and by far it is the best. The temperature is very easy to control and maintain heat perfectly. It is well built and designed. However one thing I will note is that I thought the keg was manufactured in North America when in fact it is made overseas. You have to read the broil king website closely to see that it is only their gas grills that are made in North America. I traditionally avoid purchasing overseas barbeques because I have found them to be inferior to north American made products. However I do find the keg to be very well built and designed.

Very Good but......
I bought my BK Keg 5000 about 3 weeks ago and as for as lighting, stability of temperatures, efficiency everything is great as everyone says, love it and It's rapidly becoming the go to cooking device. But I have a huge gripe about the cast iron grill grate and the grate removal tool. To start at the end, last weekend, 2 weeks into ownership I took the grate out with the tool, it slipped off, dropped on the floor and being cast iron it smashed. I haven't had chance to speak with customer service yet so can't comment on that but it has really tainted the experience. So, brilliant but flawed design and in my view wrong choice of material.

Great Grill, but starting to disintegrate
Grill has worked great, however the three brackets holding the grill plate in place have started to disintigrate. Screws have rusted / fallen out due to heat and bracket no longer holds the weight of the grill plate. The brackets are part of the body of the grill - not sold separately.

6 years and counting..
I have trucked this Broil King Keg across the Midwest. Cooked in 7-8 states with this grill/smoker. I have dropped it, picked up my beer and the Broil King Keg and grilled steaks an hour later. Worth every penny! I have buddies with the red and green ceramic brands. When the Broil King Keg is 700 degrees I can put my hand on the outside of it. Try that with a ceramic kamado. The Broil King Keg does not loose heat like a ceramic kamado.

Where it was made,
Who ever it was I talk to about where this Keg was made, They told U.S. and Canada, Now that I have it I see it was made in China, I am not happy, Ray

Efficient Perfect Heat Every Time !
By far my best BBQ purchase to date. The heat is extremely easy to control and maintain, and makes charcoal grilling a pleasure. Whether its 6 hours cooking ribs, or 16 hours cooking a large pork shoulder for pulled pork.....it's perfection every time!!! After set up, and dialling in the perfect temperature, I can confidently leave the grill un-attended, and enjoy several hours at the beach, only to return to the exact temperatures I set it at.
If you are intimidated by the thoughts of charcoal grilling, please don't be!!! You are cheating your taste buds!!! After a few uses, and learning your set up, this thing does the cooking for you..... As simple as a crockpot....Set it and forget it!
Can't wait to purchase and try the new Regal Pellet 500!

So great, I bought a 2nd one!!
I originally bought this grill around 2009 when it was known as the Bubba Keg. That grill was AWESOME, but was in need of a few repairs. I could've bought a BGE or any other kamodo-style grill, but for the money, the BK Keg 5000 is the best value and it cooks just as great! The new ash drawer is a nice added feature, but unfortunately I am not able to use any of my old fans to control temps like I could with the old bottom vent.
Other than that....BK 5000 is an AWESOME product!

Very Efficient
I bought the Keg over two years ago and have used it many times for low and slow (between 225 and 325 degrees, depending on the meat) cooking of ribs, chickens, pork butts, etc. I have also used at high heat to cook homemade pizza. It is very good at maintaining a desired temp if one slowly approaches that temp. Blowing past the desired temp is a problem: its hard to get back down to where you need to be. When taking that initial care, I've been able to maintain between 225 and 235 for 12 hours, with enough coal left over to have gone several more hours. Very efficient. I've cooked pizza on a stone at over 800 degrees, but find the results better (indeed, fantastic) at 600 degree. One task
any kamado doesn't do well without a lot of fiddlesome re-rigging, including this one, is reverse searing: the coals are too far away.
