Of the multiple styles of smokers you have owned or have used which style of smoker is your favorite and why?
That's the thing. I really like my WSM but once I get the charcoal burning and things assembled it's almost 'set it and forget it'. I may have to adjust the bottom vents a hair's breadth now and then but there's nothing to it. Most smokes don't require the addition of charcoal or water. The offsets would be a bit more fiddley I guess and what man doesn't like playing with fire. :)
Joe and me are on the same page...i love WSM some but no where near my offset stick burner for flavor and fun!
Happy Smoking,

Offest stick burner, for sure. It gives me great flavors and it's fun to play with fire.
I smoke with my offset. if i wanna do a burger/dog/steak on the grill i break out my weber kettle.

I'm not sure how practical it is to keep raising the firebox lid on an offset smoker but some burgers and dogs can be cooking on the firebox food grate while the ribs are smoking. If that's not practical then the firebox can be used to grill a steak or two without smoking foods too.
I just about have myself talked into buying one in case you haven't picked up on that from my other recent posts. :D
Thanks all!
