One thing is for sure.....It's not the easiest thing to roll across the yard at 320 pounds and on small wheels. I finally got it into place and won't be moving it around so I really don't have to have larger wheels but if you do, you had better be thinking about a modification.
My first smoke was two 5 pound pork butts and it went well and very easy. The only thing that I will do different next time is put them on the top grate. I used a mix of hickory and apple but I really didn't get as much smoke flavor as I would have liked. Next time I will start at a lower temp like 180 for an hour or two and them step it up. I might also try adding my amaznps but I am not sure where the best place to position it might be. Any suggestions? I am looking forward to some great smokes and I think that a brisket is in the near future. I also have a bunch of wings ready to go. Thanks for asking.

Yes I have had good success on mine...though at times seems too easy...no fire to fiddle with...My stick burner is getting jealous so I am going to need to fire her up soon..
Another happy Yoder 640 owner here.
