Ok so after reading dozens and dozens of articles on charcoal vs propane.... I decided to go with propane. I WILL eventually have both... but i dont want to have to tend to the smoker as much.
Anyways I have narrowed it down to two smokers. I wanted to stay in the $150 range...
The walmart Great Outdoor Smoky Mountain looks pretty good and seems to have a good following. However, I have heard bad things about it not having a drip pan, and you have to open the door to add wood or water. Could i just put a cookie sheet on the 4th rack that isn't used as a drip man?

The other one is a Brinkman, also at walmart. Looks pretty decent and has a separate door for the water/wood. However, it has had mixed reviews regarding placement of the water pan and temp control.

Please give me some advice on which one i should get!!! It will be used mostly for ribs and the occasional pork butt.
Thanks
