Okay here we go not trying to start any drama but I have a question. Who built the first insulated smoker? And who built the first gravity fed smoker.I believe there's two maybe three companies try to claim this fame so who was it?

Yup! When I was a kid my dad and uncles used to use old refrigerators to smoke their linguica, chourico and morcella and they weren't the first to do so.
