So. Im sure this is a "smokey" debate
but Electric vs Coal vs Pellet vs Stick Burner.....
Im guessing that as with anything BBQ its up to the preference of the owner/user, but is there a consensus on the flavor differences and final product (in generalities) between the various methods of heat production?
Id guess that Electric is easiest to maintain temps, but might not produce the most full bodied of smoke flavor
Propane is just downright cheating, but in the world of consistency and "instant acquisition and performance" its ultimate in "set and forget" with probably a smoke characteristic on par with..
Coal, producing the most body of smoke with a reasonable ease of temp control depending on your own smoker.
Stick Burner...gonna be the boss in the world of smoke, flavor, but probably the longest in terms of learning curve?
What are your couple of cents?
