Box smokers have been doing well at competitions and backyarders love them because they’re compact, easy to use, and efficient to run. Combined with Meadow Creek’s 40+ year tradition of outstanding quality and service, the BX50 Cabinet Smoker is setting the woods on fire.
What really sets this box smoker apart is the ability to use it with or without water! Unlike some cabinet smokers on the market, such as the famous Backwoods Competitor, the BX50 works fine without water, which means you can use it for jerky. The water does help stabilize the temperature, but it does a very good job without water too.
The BX50 also comes standard with an auto-feed water system and a 5-gallon water jug for hassle-free water smoking.
Each cooking grate holds a full size pan.
This smoker is easy to use and quite efficient too, running at 250 degrees F for at least 8 hours on 20 pounds of charcoal. There are two thermometers for monitoring the inside of the cooking chamber. Using the BX50 as a water smoker, you should see only several degrees difference between the top and bottom thermometers once it’s up and running.
Whether you cook in the backyard, competitions, or in a commercial catering setting, the Meadow Creek BX50 is the next cool smoker to have.

Gas Assist Add On
The Taste of Wood: The Convenience of Gas
Do you love traditional wood and charcoal smokers, but wish you could “cheat” once in a while? How would you like to throw away your weed burner and preheat your smoker with the flip of a switch? Or start an all-night cook and go to sleep, knowing your temp will stay rock-solid even after the coals burn down?
Meadow Creek’s revolutionary gas-assist option turns a TS or BX smoker into a shape-shifting jack-of-all-trades. Driven by a powerful Wayne burner, it can preheat your smoker, light your wood or charcoal, and lock in your pit temp within 5 degrees of your set point.
It’s like having two pits in one. Smoke the traditional way with just coals and wood, cook on gas alone, or perfect your favorite hybrid approach for the best of both worlds. You’ve never smoked like this before.

- Electronic thermostat with digital readout
- Connects to 110-volt power with a regular extension cord
