Pro Series Model 1500 

SmokinTex introduces the Pro Series 1500 

 A large electric ( all stainless) smoker  at an  affordable price. 

The Pro Series 1500 uses a dual 700 watt heating element system that gives you the flexibility of using the full 
1400 watts or just 700 watts, depending on the load.  
 
With the optional “Deflector Plate” you can direct the drippings onto or away from the wood boxes to reduce the 
amount of moisture in the smoker. It’s ideal for doing jerky, summer sausage, and other foods you might prefer 
a little dryer. 
 
 
 

 

Easy to use. Put in wood and food, shut the door, and set  the temperature 

 

No attention needed while smoking/cooking 

 

Thermostat for even temperature control 

 

Low, slow, and even temperature is gentle to food 

 

Smokes beef, pork, poultry, fish, seafood, lamb, sausage, game, vegetables, etc. Makes great jerky!
