The Fast Eddy's by Cookshack FEC500 is a 100% wood-burning smoker oven for barbecue restaurants, caterers, and large volume operations. This big pit has a 500 lb. capacity. It gets up to temp in 10 to 15 minutes, features electronically-controlled heat and an amazing 15 minute heat recovery time. Uses 100% wood pellets, which provide pure wood smoke flavor, economically. Ash is cold and is removed by the cupful, rather than the trash-can-full. No more dumpster fires! Because it is 100% wood burning, you won't get gas fumes passing over your meat, which means a much better tasting product than you can get with gas-fired pits. NSF approved, CE Rated, UL listing pending.

More and more barbecue restaurants, catering operations and competition cooks are discovering the benefits of using the Fast Eddy's by Cookshack FEC500 pit for 100% wood smoked barbecue. Install it in the kitchen or mount it on a trailer and take it on the road.

100% wood smoke flavor tastes just like Grandaddy used to do it. The FEC500 burns 100% wood pellets, made by heat compression of pure wood sawdust. There are no fillers to bind the sawdust. The FEC500 is clean burning and meets even the strictest emission standards.

No more burning dumpsters because someone emptied a big dustbin of hot ashes. Pellets produce minimal ash which you can remove about once a week with a small saucepan.

Large capacity - 15 - 12x42" chrome plated steel rotisserie racks 52 square feet of cooking space.  Smoke-cook up to 500 lbs. of  pork shoulder or beef brisket, 450 lbs. of ribs, or 60 chickens in only one load.

40 lb. hopper capacity means you don't have to add fuel during a cook cycle. Just load it with the pellets of your choice, set the thermostat and rely on the FEC500 to tend your fire within an optimum cooking range all night.

Easy, flip-of-the switch starting gets your FEC500 up to smoking temperature quickly. And the heat-recovery time after opening the door is fast, often in only 10 minutes, because the burner safely stays on when the doors are open. As a result, you gain valuable cooking time compared to conventional smokers that often take a half hour or more to get back to cooking temp each time the lid is lifted or the doors are opened.

Thermostatically-controlled heat gives you consistent product. You rest easy knowing that your food is going to come out just right with every load.
