New guy here. Got a birthday coming up and have requested Cabela's GCs toward a new smoker. I also hang out on the "Cook's Talk Classic" Delphi forum, and one of the good folks over there suggested I come here for good advice, recipes and so on.
I have an old cheapo sidebox unit which works fine as a charcoal grill, (I live in a high wind area north of Winnipeg, and sometimes the Weber gas unit won't stay lit) but is a total pain to try and control temperature on for smoking. I've been reading some of the posts here about the electric units available at Cabela's, which is the only place around here that has more than one smoker, and it appears most of you favour the Masterbuilt over the Bradley.
So I'm hoping you can help me decide on a couple of things. Do I want to bother with Bluetooth control? Do I want a window? Are there any accessories I really need?
I'm sure I will have lots of other questions and I look forward to "meeting" some of you and learning from you
