Trying to decide between a Gravity Fed Charcoal smoker or a Pellet smoker. I have looking at the following:
I am just not sure which I want but I am leaning towards the MB1050. My question is really longevity and durability. This is an investment for me for at least 5-10 years. I was using a UDS before and loved the flavour and cooking process on this but the temperature management was always a struggle. I need something that I can set and forget as I have 3 kids and when entertaining my wife needs all the help she can get. She hates me having to babysit the meat and is always reluctant to let me smoke because of this.
So what do people recommend for a set and forget smoker. I am looking at a Webber Kettle 22" for my grilling and am aware I can smoke on it. I WILL try this in the future but for now I need something "set and forget".
Any other suggestions in the $1600 range are welcome.
Sorry for the repost Jim.
