Johnson Smokers Ultimate Tailgater
Didn't someone post about a cooker similar to this or was it this one a while back? ....Smitty maybe
Anyways after going to their website from seeing the other Johnson Smoker post this smoker/grill really intrigues me. I like that it goes on a hitch, has a rolling base, gas assist, functions like a charcoal grill and is a RF all rolled into one. I like everything except that graffiti logo on the ends! but that can be replaced with ND. http://www.johnsonsmokers.com/ultimate-tailgater/

Great design and in hindsight I wish I would have bought that model instead. Transporting it so much easier.

IDK, the smoker design looks great but it seems like a crap load of weight/torque for a 2" hitch?

RECEIVER-HITCH SETUP WITH ROLLING STAND UPGRADE The pit is perfectly balanced and made to install in a standard 2” receiver hitch. Take a look at the photos for the unit sitting on a truck. Its built strong yet Two men can lift the pit and put it on the reciever hitch, so there are no structural issues as the pit is well under the capacity of the receiver hitch mount which have a 500lb tongue weight capacity. It has been tested on different vehicles and does not damage your paint on your bumper or tail-gate. You can hold your hand 1″ away from the pit at all times while it is cooking and it will not burn you. Rolling stand Upgrade This listing is for the tailgate pit with the extra heavy duty stand with Steel caster wheels. The stand is custom made to allow for the pit to sit in somwhat like a craddle. You can pull it off your hitch, drop it in the stand and roll it around to your backyard or to the cooking area. We do build this same pit with a stationary stand, see my Other items for that design.

I don't know about you but I hauled a 11000 lbs toy hauler on a 2" hitch. I am pretty sure that hitch could handle up to 500+ lbs.

It's 3/16th steel and 180lbs (for the basic one, I'm sure this is a little heavier so call it 200-220lbs) according to the website. Even my wife agree it would be a good fit for long RV trips! I may end up with one of these next year.

CONCLUSIONS All in all this is a very efficient unit. The main chamber and firebox are constructed from right at 3/16 steel making it able to be maneuvered by 2 men. It will last a very long time and holds heat better than any I’ve seen. The new T-Reverse flow system, dual Chrome stacks at grate level, dual cooking racks, and added ability to be turned into a Charcoal Grill makes these pits one of a kind and a super flexible cooking unit. This unit is built with the same standards as the large competition style pits that I build that are for sell in other listings. No quality is lost. There is not another pit like this out there!

Has anyone had experience cooking on one? My concern is that amount of radiant heat close to the plastic rear bumper. Or is the idea to remove it from the hitch and use the stand once you get to your destination?
