The 5×8 reverse flow smoker trailer is a compact, commercial-grade pit that goes from the driveway to the fairgrounds without skipping a beat. Unlike a standard offset, it uses reverse-flow technology to pull heat and smoke under a baffle plate and back across the meat, which evens out the temperature across the whole grate, kills the hot spots, and produces a better bark and smoke ring on every cook.

Compact footprint, serious capacity

Built on a rugged 5-foot by 8-foot chassis with a greaseable 3,500 lb Dexter axle, this mobile smokehouse tows easily behind a half-ton truck while still carrying a massive 250-gallon barrel. The 7-gauge steel construction delivers the heat retention and durability that long cook sessions demand, and a large built-in wood cage keeps your splits dry and within arm’s reach. It is the right rig for the pitmaster who wants commercial results without towing a full-size trailer to every job.
