Hello all, new member here, new to smoking looking into my first cheap smoker. I have narrowed it down to stick burners, preferably offset. I know there is a huge learning curve but I am up for the challenge and I am prepared to do some mods to get it working even better. Budget is below $400 ideally. I am currently considering the Oklahoma Joe Highland which seems to be pretty decent. The Smoke Canyon Vertical Offset, or Dyna Glo Vertical Offset, which both seem like remade Brinkmann Smokers. And of course the Weber Smokey Mountain because everyone loves them but the only local ones are 18" and not the preferred 22" and they are more expensive. I like the setup of the offsets though and really plan on mostly burning wood. Anyone have any recommendations they are willing to share on these choices? I have included the links as well. I will mostly be cooking fish, or ribs and maybe some chicken, and will not be making a crazy amount of food at a time. Any help is appreciated.
