live in GA. Do I have to go to Oklahoma to buy an Oklahoma Joe smoker?

I bought mine used here in Arizona. I'm almost sure Brinkman bought out Oklahoma Joe. If that helps you to research finding one.

Here are a couple of links that might help you out.  I'm not sure how up to date all this is, or if the new Oklahoma Joes are of the same quality of the old ones.  Some of the old names in smokers out there have deteriorated in their quality through changes in ownership, chinese construction, etc.  See:

Good luck and good smoking.
