Napoleon Apollo® 18 Charcoal Water Smoker – Precision Low & Slow BBQ

Available at You Need A BBQ | Sherwood Park, Alberta

The Napoleon Apollo® 18-Inch Charcoal Water Smoker is designed for barbecue enthusiasts who demand control, versatility, and authentic charcoal-smoked flavor. Using a classic vertical water smoker design, the Apollo 18 excels at low-and-slow cooking—producing tender, juicy brisket, ribs, pork shoulder, poultry, fish, and even vegetables with consistent results every time.

Built with a durable black powder-coat enamel finish, the Apollo 18 offers excellent heat retention and weather resistance for year-round smoking. Three adjustable inlet vents allow precise heat management, while the ACCU-PROBE™ temperature gauge provides accurate, at-a-glance monitoring so you can stay locked into your target cooking temperature.

The included water pan and charcoal basket help stabilize heat and moisture during long cooks, keeping meats succulent and flavourful. Two 304 stainless steel cooking grids deliver even heat distribution, low maintenance, and long-lasting durability, while the total 254.5 square inches of cooking space across three levels makes this smoker ideal for backyard cooks who want capacity without sacrificing efficiency.

What truly sets the Apollo 18 apart is its versatility. The stainless steel rotisserie ring is ready for optional motor and spit installation, allowing you to rotate meats for even cooking, while the lid-mounted horizontal hanging bar with five stainless steel S-hooks opens the door to hanging ribs, sausages, and fish for a traditional smokehouse-style cook.

Designed with usability in mind, the Apollo 18 features large access doors with insulated handles for easy fuel and food access without major heat loss. Silicone-sealed probe ports let you run digital temperature probes cleanly and accurately, reducing smoke leaks and improving temperature consistency. Locking toggle latches keep each section secure during cooking and allow for easy breakdown when it’s time to transport or store the unit.

Finished with locking caster wheels, the Napoleon Apollo® 18 is easy to move around your patio or deck and stays firmly in place once positioned. Whether you’re stepping into charcoal smoking for the first time or looking for a reliable, space-efficient smoker with serious capability, the Apollo 18 delivers classic barbecue results backed by the trusted craftsmanship of Napoleon.

🔥 If great barbecue is built on time, temperature, and patience, the Apollo® 18 is ready to deliver.
