Grills & Outdoor Cooking

great size to take camping

It's a great size to take camping. very good air flow My first Smokey Joe had the vents on the bottom which I liked very much. Then the design changed moved the vents to the side which I didn't care for, but I still liked the grill. After a couple of Smokey Joes later, I seen an ad on their web site for the Jumbo Joe. It looked like the perfect grill for camping vents on the bottom and an ash catcher. So its the perfect grill for camping. Size and function I give two thumbs up.

We love your store !!!

My husband just bought this grill for Camping (: We love it ! It fits perfect in our Camper and is plenty big for us !!!!

Good Pot/Basket combo...at a GREAT price!

This is a good quality pot, at a GREAT price. The 42 qt pot and basket combo was exactly what we needed for our shrimp boil, making about 20 servings in this one pot. Academy's price was better than anywhere else I've found for a 42qt-sized pot/basket combo. I cooked on a propane burner and there's a slight brown mark on the very bottom of the pot where it was hottest...nothing I wouldn't already expect.

Best pot for boiling seafood.

Bought this a month ago for a crawfish boil for my grandson who was turning 16. It did the job excellent. We boiled potatoes, corn , and crawfish in it. They turned out delicious, and the straining pot that came with the pot was perfect for pouring out the food. We love it.

Great Dutch Oven

I got this Dutch oven for Christmas, I do a lot of cooking out on the grill and smoker and wanted a Dutch Oven to give me more options to cook different things. The first thing I cooked in it was a beef stew, it turned out great. I really like the quality of this Dutch Oven, it is heavy not like those thin ones, it is made to last, and Lodge has been around for a long time and they know cast iron, you want go wrong with this one.

Fantastic cookware

This is the best Dutch Oven I have ever had. Nice flat bottom to sit on any cooktop surface. Wire handle works nicely. Should last 100 years or more.

This stuff is amazing!!

I was behind an "Old Timer" in Harbor Freight Tools and out of the blue he asked me if I liked steaks. Being the Texan that I am I said of course. He told me to apply a bunch of this seasoning along with A1 steak sauce to the steaks while they're grilling. Best steak I ever had.

seasoning for all occasions

I know it says steak seasoning on the bottle but let me tell you it goes well on pretty much everything. I ran out of the seasoning I usually use on my chicken thighs so I used Uncle Chris steak seasoning. I was pleasantly surprised. My guest and I loved it. Now I put it on just about anything I throw on the grill. Great product!

American Made Quality - Lifetime Purchase

I wish Academy carried more cast iron gear like this instead of the Chinese brand cast iron gear that they seem to be phasing in. The design is better for cooking and I can trust the cast iron is top notch and doesn't have impurities or even toxic metals mixed in. I can't say that about the Chinese version. (Remember the poisonous wheat gluten and baby formula?) These are factors I consider when cooking my food. All benefits of buying American-made aside (keeping jobs here, less tax dollars ... read more Click to read full text of review titled "American Made Quality - Lifetime Purchase". for unemployment to displaced workers) the Lodge design is way more user friendly. The lid handle is a consistent size (instead of a taper like the Chinese oven) So you can pick this lid up using a lifter without it wobbling and dumping coals into your food. I also believe the look and feel is heavier and better quality which will likely translate into more even cooking and heat distribution.

It's Lodge, Duh!

I've not used this particular oven, but I've used my 12" - 6 Qt extensively with excellent results. It's a Lodge, what else needs to be said. Great price & delivery beating everyone else out there

Best there is

I have been buying this for 10 years. Found t in Florida on vacation and have been buying online and when I find it locally. Makes the best pulled pork ever. My family and friends say mine is the best they have had and it’s all because of this tub. I use it on ribs too.

Favorite seasoning ever

This is a staple in our spice cabinet. We use it on everything we grill and smoke, including turkey on Thanksgiving. Perfect!

Great flavor and the best price on the web!

No need to search the web for a lower price on wood for your smoker! Academy has every type of wood at the lowest price anywhere!

Works great!

Easy to use and my burgers didn’t fall apart on the grill. Filled the trays to the top for half pound burgers. I made 12 patties in less time than it took the coals to be ready.

Great product

This is a great product. Easy to use. Easy to clean.

Delish!!!!

Just the right flavor for smoking ribs in my smoker!!!!

Best rub for smoking beef

We have been using this to smoke our beef and love it. Unable to find it anymore at any of our local stores we ordered it here. So glad we found it!

Slap Your Mama hot seasoning 8 oz

This seasoning is the bomb on just about anything. Received one from son on Christmas 2015. Best seasoning I have ever had. Would recommend this seasoning to anyone who likes a little spice on their foods. Not that hot.

OUTSTANDING SEASONING

I'm so grateful that you offer at least three varieties of one of my go-to seasonings. THANKS A MILLION!!!

Terrfic rub

I was scared to buy this rub based on how cheap it was (i'm used to buying rubs that are $8+ a bottle but this stuff was insane. Terrific flavor on smoked pork butts...highly recommended.

Really surprised!

I had never used this brand before, but figured it would be worth a try. I'm glad I did! It really made the country style boneless ribs pop!

Works Great!!!

I wanted a press maker for awhile just wasn't happy with others I bought this in hopes it would do well. Guess what I am happy makes nice burger bun sized patties and I like the ease of cleaning and use. Good Job on an inexpensive good press maker.

Quick and Easy dessert

I bought this about 2 months ago thinking I would try it while we were out RVing. It was so easy and the taste was amazing!!! I live that I can use any fruit!

VERY easy and VERY good...nothing else needed to be said!

Amazing Grill Topper Mr. BBQ

#1 grates wash perfectly clean after use in dishwasher. Fits inside disposable Aluminum pan. Will support a slab of ribs. Can cook ribs low & slow over water (fat drips in pan). Remove pan and finish ribs with BBQ Sauce directly on the grill. Will be perfect for corn without husk.

Good Stuff

This seasoning is very good on catfish and crappie also

Great product

Was a little hesitant about the price, but this cover fits just right over my four burner charbroil grill. Material feels thick enough and should last a good while. Not a bad product for the price, would buy again just to have a spare.

Perfect fit for the Outdoor Gourmet 4-Burner Grill

Bought this a couple days after receiving our Outdoor Gourmet 4-Burner Gas Grill and it is a perfect fit. The material is nice & sturdy yet it is one of the better prices I found. I wouldn't hesitate to buy this cover for any grill in the 55" size range.

Works better than the traditional starters

This starter is shorter but has a wider mouth and I found it actually starts coals much wuicker PLUS its stainless steel.
