A-maze-n pellet smoker question for newbie

[bgaviator]

I am very interested in smoking meats like chicken and ribs, but I don't really have the funds to purchase a dedicated smoker right now.  I do have a 3 burner gas grill however, and I was wondering if I could use this in conjunction with like the A-Maze-N pellet smoker to successfully smoke?  I did an experiment and I just turned one of the burners on the side on, and I seemed to be able to maintain a temp of 180 if the knob was completely on low.  If I can do this, what A-maze-n product (tube pellet smoker or regular pellet smoker) do you recommend for my situation, and what kind of method would I use?  Thanks.

I would definitely go with the tube smoker - it will serve you well in your configuration
