So anyone with a BJs wholesale membership knows BJs has always sold Brinkmann Trailmaster LEs w/ an exclusive 2nd rotating shelf. 

Landmann has always been a maker of upright fridge/box style gas smokers, but look what we saw in the store yesterday. 


ITS THE TRAILMASTER!
This thing is SO new, the picture on the box is photoshopped w/ their logo. 


Looks like they upgraded the lid, maybe this wont need a gasket like the trailmaster did?

I cut my smokin' teeth on a old Brinkmann Smokin' Pit years ago. I will always be thankful to Brinkmann for making a smoker I could actually afford to purchase way back then.

If not for them I may have never gotten hooked on what is now a passion.
 
i dont understand your question. 

Charbroil is entry level $99, 150 and $200 smoker models with less than 3/16th "steel" , High end Charbroil is actually Oklahoma joes, which has 1/8".

Brinkmann Long horns used to bridge the gap at $330 with thicker steel, but no welding. I had my longhorn for 2 years and it was amazing until my awning collapsed with 2k lbs of snow crushing it. 

This new smoker i saw at BJs is BETTER than brinkmann, becuase it has the better beveled lid so you wont need to buy a gasket. 
 
OK joes are owned by Charbroil. 

If you buy any Charbroil product, get a OKJ, do nto get anythign with charbroil on it, thats entry level and thinner steel. 

Now that image is the OKJ highland. thats 40% smaller than the Brinkmann Trailmaster, Landmann Smokeymountain, OKJ Longhorn. 
Highlands do not have 879 in smoking space. they are including the firebox as cooking space. 
 
Actually I have a Brinkmann that looks the same and I bought it from BJs. I think these are sold by BJs in this style?!

Oklahoma joes actually has 3/32 steel not 1/8. The brinkmann longhorns were fully welded and made from 1/4” steel.

Any idea of how thick the steel is? There’s a used one for sale near me and I just want to know it’s worth it. I can’t find hardly any info online about it
