********We broke in the pit last night. We couldn't wait to use it. The BBQ came out great, the pit kept the heat where we wanted it. Very pleased and happy to support Matt's Pits. We will definitely promote your business! Thanks for everything. Chuck C.
********I enjoyed my model 2017 pit. Very happy with the product and enjoy talking to Matt and his wife. Highly Recommended. Mark M.
*******Matt's pits are awesome, looking forward to years of grilling with my new pit! Jordan P.
******We looked all over Texas, for several years, for a custom welder that could build us two large bbq pits. Matt does excellent work at a reasonable price, and has a ton of experience that translates into designs that work extremely well. Like draw for instance (how the smoke transfers thru the pit) he's using taller smokestacks to help that are 4.5" diameter. We really like this "massive look", plus it keeps the smoke out of your face. Counterweights to make opening the lid easier. Matt and his wife are super nice ppl, and a pleasure to do business with. Highly Recommend! Jason P.
**********I bought this smoker from Matt and he is very personable and answers any questions you may have. I have been smoking for years and by far this is the best pit I have used. The model I bought came with tuning plates and the temperature from one side to the other was only 5 to 7 degree difference. The firebox is very efficient and used 5 pieces of wood to smoke 3 racks of ribs, 1 brisket, and some chicken wings. This man knows his pits he designed these well for years of use. Thx Matt Jason M.
**********I bought the 2454 and LOVE it!!!. The design is perfect and is easy to use. I can't think of any way to improve it. The counter weights are set just right. My wife can open it with no problem and she only weighs 90lbs. Matt hit a home run with this one. Pat S.
*********I picked up the pit on Saturday seasoned the pit at 175 degrees for 6 hours. So yesterday I made 3 racks of beef ribs, 2 pork loins, and chicken leg quarters. Man, all I can say is that I'm super happy with everything, temperature control was very precise and easy to manage, 4 hours at 225 degrees= goodness. Slide out grills are excellent, the integrated tables were super handy. This pit (hog model) with the square fire box has impressed me, I deffinately will recommend it to anybody whos is looking for a great backyard barbecuing machine.
********I just got a 2454 from Matt a couple months back. I looked at many other builders. Once you get in that price range they all looked pretty good in their own way, it just depends on what YOU want in a bbq pit. I ran across Matts bbq pits in pipe creek and went to see him and check out his work. He had just finished a 2454 for a customer so i looked it over very well. It was honestly the best pit for what I was looking for. Although I found it to be the best value over all the others, i really didnt care how much it cost. It was what I was looking for. The big sale for me was the firebox since its huge and I can grill on it. All other fire boxes were smaller limiting my grilling and I didn't want to buy another nice pit for grilling if I didn't have to. I have now smoked ribs, pork butt, chicken, and other stuff on this reverse flow 2454 and everytime it has come through with flying colors. This is a big heavy pit and I upgraded the firebox to 3/8 steel and also big steel wheels. This IS my dream pit and it works great. It loves to sit around 215 degrees which really made me happy. Put to rest any negative comments...this pit is bad tail, well made and unreal value. Zero complaints so far. Tye T.
********Was an honor to buy a pit from this man. Does extremely great work! Thanks Matt! Patrick B.
