[QUOTE="Veteran, post: 2317556, member: 118038"] I'd vote for a Pit Boss pellet grill. I have 2 of them. You can find them cheap, even online at places like Walmart, Academy, Lowes, etc. They will ship to your door too. They are as good as Traeger but 100's less. I like being able to set the digital heat control for an over night brisket that's gonna smoke 8 to 16 hrs. depending on weight of meat, then go to bed and not have to wake up to check or tend fire box. The digital controls work great but do not leave it outside in the winter for 6 months in 20 below. Electronics dont like that. If you set it at front of your garage in winter, off to side, you can open garage door and smoke in winter too without leaving it outside. I love that you have so many choices for woods and can find the one that suits your tastes or certain meats. Oh, I tried hickory, cherry, mesquite, post oak, etc., but my favorite wood is pecan. I love my steaks, fish, brisket, smoked w pecan. It has a great flavor. Pork may like apple wood or cherry. Its just easy and convenient to get a few bags of pellets at the grocery or Lowes or order from Walmart. When I go to Texas, I drop by HEB and throw 4 bags of pecan or post oak in the car. $11 per bag at the grocery. $20 maybe online. But its like powder and bullet seating finding that perfect wood. The other great feature of Pit Boss is its versatility.....its not just a smoker. You slide back the barrel beneath the grill and you get the open flame from the firebox and can digitally dial it up from 150 to 400 degrees and grill burgers or steaks or anything else too. I like to smoke my steaks and burgers for an hour or so on 100 to 150 degrees and when internal meat temp reaches 120, I slide back the barrel and grill them up to medium rare at 135. They are best ever! Pit Boss all the way sir! Pecan pellets. [/QUOTE]
