Need help choosing a new offset!!! Help!!

[Jbrig9202]

Hello all!

Just joined the SMF site and looking for a little assistance. I am a semi beginner to smoking. I have done a couple of pork shoulders, and a brisket.

I am looking to our shade a new offset smoker but don’t want to break the bank. I have narrrowed down to the Dyna-glo signature series or the chargriller competition pro 8125. I know everyone loves Oklahoma Joe but they are unavailable in store for some reason and on Amazon you pay a TON of shipping.



Thanks
Joe

Try your local craiglist, letgo, offerup or facebook marketplace. You should be able to find a good deal on a used higher end offset. I've found many excellent deals at these sites.

I love my DG. I followed the mods that were presented on this page, in detail I might add, and everything is downright kick butt. The DG offset vertical is just so much better than my previous offsets.
