Very hard to look at Cook Shack’s website and get a feel for the surface area to smoke. I’d like a unit that can handle 3 racks of ribs and a full packer brisket. From looking at their website it’s not possible on the 500 or 1000 as part of the rack space is for direct grilling. Looking at...

@browneyesvictim - I live in the Houston/Galveston area. Any smoker, even with black high heat paint will rust. Covering doesn’t help & neither does rolling into garage (my garage is not finished & not air conditioned). Rolling a huge cooker into the garage is not practical in my case anyway...

@motocrash - yes, my smoker doubles as a fishin’ kayak

I've cooked a few pork shoulders & briskets on my PBC. They always turn out nice but yesterday I was a bit flummoxed when it came to hanging my two shoulders. The fire was pretty hot & after putting the hooks in either side of pork shoulder, the hooks were facing in opposite directions. The...

I'm a 50 something new by to the forum. I've had different smokers over the years and currently just have the Pit Barrel Cooker. Over the years I've had offset smokers and a BGE. Thanks for having me
