Dyna-Glo DGO 1890BDC-D Key Features

Dyna-Glo DGO 1890BDC-D Smoker benefits of several features that ensure you a pleasant cooking experience. As some features may not be so important for some people, it is not unexpected for them to be a deal-breaker for other people. However, I prepared a list of the most features that have a great impact on your experience.

Size

The size is really important, unless you are not going to move around the smoker, and you have way too much free space. Most of the times, Dyna-Glo smoker’s size can prove itself quite bothersome especially when you are planning to take the smoker on a camping trip. As it measures 21 x 43.3 x 50.2 inches you will need a lot of space in your truck just for the smoker. However, this size comes with some benefits as well. One of the greatest benefits that come with this size is the large cooking chamber that has a total of 1890 square inches of cooking space. Thus, you will be able to cook whatever dish you want without having to worry about the food’s size. However, the smoker size alongside with the materials used for its built create a rather big inconvenience when it comes to transportation of the smoker, as a smoker this big built with sturdy materials weight 83 pounds.

Materials

When it comes to durability, you won’t be disappointed either as Dyna-Glo DGO 1890BDC-D is completely built with durable heavy-duty steel which increases the smoker’s life granting a great resistance against usage damage. Also, the handles are built with heat resistant materials which allow you to avoid burning your hand and to enjoy a risk-free experience.

Cooking Chamber

As mentioned before, Dyna-Glo DGO 1890BDC-D Smoker has a massive cooking chamber which measures 1890 square inches. The chamber is equipped with 6 cooking grates that can withstand 25 pounds each. Moreover, you can easily customize the cooking chamber to fit bigger pieces of food by removing unnecessary grates or by changing the grate type. As a vertical smoker, the natural heat flow improves the smoke flavour. Also, due to the offset design, the food is kept away from direct heat and allowing a slow cooking and an enhanced smoke flavour infusion.

Temperature and temperature control

Located on the top of the cooking chamber, the adjustable smokestack can provide a certain level of temperature control which boost the precision of cooking. Also, for an even increased precision, the smoker is equipped with a stainless steel thermometer that allows you to easily track the temperature in order to benefit of perfectly cooked foods.

Fuel type

Most of the times the fuel type is not such a big deal as the difference in flavour won’t be that noticeable for most of the people, but if you are someone with fine tastes then Dyna-Glo DGO 1890BDC-D won’t disappoint you as you will benefit from dishes enriched in genuine smoky flavours as the smoker uses as main fuel charcoal. You can also use pieces of wood as fuel as long as you can fit them in the firebox chamber.

Firebox chamber

The firebox chamber is able to keep the charcoal stacked tightly for an increased burn efficiency and moreover, the chamber is built with porcelain enamelled steel for even better burn efficiency. Also, the ash management system will allow you to easily get rid of the ashes left after a cooking session. The removable steel ash pan not only that keeps the firebox chamber clear but it is able to collect ashes for hours of cooking thus allowing you to enjoy long cooking sessions without being bothered by any cleaning process.

Can I use Dyna-Glo DGO 1890BDC-D as a grill?

No, unfortunately, you can not use this smoker as a grill. As the firebox is located on the side of the smoker, you will be able to use it only as a smoker and grilling is impossible as the food is kept away from the direct heat. The grilling may be possible for some offset smokers as some offset smokers present a grill over the firebox chamber, but as this firebox is closed and can be accessed only with the side door, grilling is not possible at all.

Is it suitable for starters?

Yes, this smoker is perfect for starters as it is beginner-friendly. Dyna-Glo DGO 1890BDC-D is really easy to assemble and you don’t need any professional assistance. Also, it is easy to maintain the temperature and you can easily cook food at precise temperatures without much experience needed as the adjustable stack and the built-in thermometer.
