THE HISTORY OF OLD SMOKEY
PRODUCTS COMPANY

where have we been...

Old Smokey Products Company is an 80 year old family-owned business in Houston, Texas. Over the years it has made a variety of metal products, including stove pipe, tubs, pails, coffee cans, lard cans and oil cans. Below is a group photo from 1937..

We have remained in the same location near downtown Houston since opening our doors. After two major plant expansions, our factory building has grown to 75,000 square feet. This photo is from 1930.

Today our company is best known for the Old Smokey charcoal barbecue grill, one of the oldest and most famous names in outdoor grills. There are loyal Old Smokey fans all over the world. The Old Smokey Electric Smoker (formerly known as the Redi-Smok) is another mainstay in the Old Smokey product line. Additional new products are in development that will carry on our tradition of quality cooking products.
