I’ve grilled for decades, ventured into smoking about 6 years ago after receiving a LP Masterbuilt Elite as a gift.
I was able to produce some decent meals with it. But unfortunately the smoker gave up the ghost this spring.
Decided to try my hand with an offset. And before I committed big $$ on a pit, I picked up an OKJ Highland 2 weeks ago on clearance to learn on and see if I can figure out how to make it work.
No real mods other than homemade (thanks YouTube) expanded metal basket for FB.
So far, I have had little to no issues with getting and holding a temp during seasoning or cooks. Actually it’s been easier to maintain a temp than I encountered with the Sportsman.
Currently have 2 racks of baby backs in the OJK.
I look forward to learning, and I have A LOT to learn, and maybe someday offer some tid bits of information.
