Picked me up a MB portable last night at walm art for clearance price $40. Got it seasoned last night.

You HAD to say Bourbon ,,, I was trying to wait til later .

I saw one of those here for 40 bucks . Was the display and who ever put it together jacked it up so I passed .
Looks like fun .
 
Gary I seen one of these and the chip pan is very small and water pan is larger.
Thinking about getting one but they at regular price are $100.00 but I think would work great for small cooks for a couple people.

Here's the results pulled 200 pm 20180217_134534.jpg
Rest of them are on plates. Have to say not bad at all. Used cherry chips and made a few hickory chips and used. Not Smokey enough for me but wife and daughter loved them didn't fall apart but bones would clean 99% while eating. No typo on the pans. I had done a search on here last night and some did the water and chip pan swap. I may try to make me an amps or something. Overall great for small smoke or when not wanting to sit with big wood smoker. I like the taste from my wood smoker better but not bad and it will work camping like a charm. Considering getting the other one they had on clearance for a back up.

I picked one of these up a while back as well....easier to transport than my Weber SM18". Haven't opened the box yet but should get some stuff going in April when work slows down.
