Opinions wanted - buying advice wanted
I have a smaller patio here at the house, use the smoker about 4 times a summer ( lack of use due to frustration ) , and am looking for a "different one" until I get my methods down, then buy something nicer in a couple of years - like a Traegor or close to it.
Had a Brinkmann "ECB" , did all the mods - loved it. Sold it
Currently have 2 door vertical brinkmann charcoal, did all the mods - hate it, To hard to regulate
I am ok with used (Craigslist Minneapolis, MN) or new under $200.
So far looking at Brinkmann electric "ECB" , different brands on off-set charcoal style, and am considering propane if someone here can explain the cost/ benefit of running one to me.
