    Pit Boss Vs Traeger

    Oklahoma Joe reverse flow best smoker for the money?

    absolutely. Is the steel thicker on the pecos or the highland? On academys website it says that its 14 ga with 11 ga doors like the OK Joe is 12 ga all around. I def dont want to go thinner than 12 at all. But i do like that its welded for sure
