I bought a Weber Smokey Mountain 18. I can't say I'm not excited, but I'm a bit underwhelmed with the Kamado stuff after my brief experience with it. Ordered a Kamado Joe and it arrived in several shattered pieces. Got a replacement sent to me and it was no different. Canceled it all and just went with the WSM. Half the price, but I'm sure it will work as well as my Weber Kettle.
I've owned offsets and realized that I just don't smoke enough meat at one time to justify the big smokers. I wanted the Kamado to work out because I was excited that they are more energy efficient, but I also read that the WSM will impart a more smokey flavor to the meat.
What do you guys think? Should I have just kept trying until I got a good Kamado, or was I smart to go the WSM route?
