ahhh, thanks for the acronyms page, that will be very helpful.  So why are these GOSM's so popular?  Are they better then the Camp Chef?

Maybe because they are easily available, I really don't know. There are a lot of smokers that are very popular and availability probably has something to do with it. I'm not familiar with the Camp Chef but I do have a GOSM so I can't compare but I can tell you I love my GOSM but it took quite a few mods to get it the way I want it.
