Second smoker

[Coffee118]

I've had my electric master built smomer for a couple of years now and thinking maybe it's time to change. It works great and the set it and forget it fits my busy life but the cooking with wood and fire makes everything better. I'm wondering what do y'all prefer? Offset wood and fire smokers that take a little more tending to or just stick with the electric that works fine. Thanks

I started out many years ago with a little chief, then a big chief and now the masterbuilt 30 inch. So for me I havn't advanced beyond this stage. It works so nice I havn't had the bug to switch yet.

I've got the Masterbuilt electric also and just like yourself I like the set it forget it aspect of it.  I also have two Char-Griller barrel type smoker/grills with the side firebox that I use a lot.  One older one with the firebox getting rusty but trusty and the other one newer.  I use the fire box for lower temps.  Start off with charcoal and later put some cherry chips on there or use the AMPS tube smoker in the barrel.  I do want a bigger smoker however at some point.  I have made stuff for my neighbors party's for example where the two Char-Grillers came in handy but I also would like a bigger stand up smoker to do larger amounts of sausage also.  So the fun never stops.  good luck.

 

Disregard the sign, it was given to me by the guy's at work when I retired.  They said someday I will win at smoke offs.  Well I have never entered any.  This was the day I smoked a bunch of ribs for the neighbors graduation party.  He is a major in the US Army and his daughter had a high school graduation party combined with entering the Military party at the same time.  He bought the ribs and I smoked them.  He supplied my with beer all day as well.

sheez............I am still working up the kahoonas to get my first!!!!!!!!!

[JP Z]

This is the unit I just picked up, should be fun!!

[Coffee118]

Dang Reb that's one heck of a grill/smoker, that's a little more than what I'm looking for but with that you would definitely be the king of the neighborhood. Having that on your patio would be like having a pool, instead of all the kids coming over to swim all the fathers would be over to cook on it

[RebelSS]

Mine is missing the griddle thingy on the left.

[RebelSS]

I had a side-burner in the past, and never used it. Was a waste of space for me. Let us know how it works, JP Z. Pics will be needed, of course.
