FRANKLIN BARBECUE

BRING IT TO YOUR BACKYARD

Aaron has brought his handmade pit design to your backyard. Made in the USA, Franklin Pits are a meld of artistry, science, and the highest quality materials and craftsmanship. A family heirloom.

THE DETAILS

THIS THING IS HEAVY!

The pit itself is approximately 625 lbs, and despite being on casters, can be difficult to maneuver. It is best to move the pit with an extra set of hands (or two) into your desired area where it can remain in that spot. It is best to pick a solid and level location that can support the weight of your pit (ie. concrete pad or pavers).

DIMENSIONS

  • 625 Ibs
  • 81" long and 81" high from ground to top of smokestack
  • 42" cook chamber
  • 1/4" thick rolled American made steel cook chamber and inner firebox (firebox is double walled with air gap)
  • Ships in one crate

"Why did I make a pit?"

"I built Franklin Pits for those BBQ purists who want to take their craft to the next level. Each pit is skillfully made by hand in the good ol' US of A. They are built to last. They are built with purpose. They are the result of everything I’ve learned and all the happy accidents I’ve made over the years. But my pits don’t cook on their own. They need you. They need your hard work, your passion, your patience and your craft. Give them that, and they’ll reward you every single time."
