    Masterbuilt propane smoker

    I have the two door model of the Masterbuilt. I prefer the two door. Both are very similar smokers, good results all around. The mods mentioned by others, skillet instead of using chip and using a seperate therm than the one on the door are good ideas.  I love my Master Build Vertical smoker.
