I vote cabinet and avoid the rabbit pellets. I am a fan of the Backwoods and would really like the G2 Fatboy. I have had my WSM for 10 years and love it, but if I could get the FB it would be for sale in a heartbeat. Just my .02 Pesos

Would you consider upgrading the wsm with a few mods like the insulated blanket and an automatic temp controller or are you set on a new type of smoker? That bbq guru shotgun looks like it might be good but that's just from their advertisement.

With my cabinet I could run for two days straight before reloading fuel. With my cabinet I load the wood chunks in the basket with the charcoal and never have to load wood chunks during a cook. Guys with the gravity feeds are placing wood chunks in the ash tray every so often(running the risk of spiking temps depending on how long the door is open) or they will load them in the chute. The one thing that concerns me with a gravity feed is the bridging of fuel in the chute and typically the bottom rack running much hotter than the rest of the racks. I've read where bridging can be problematic for some and no problem for others, I just didn't want to take the chance. As far as work, once my cooker is to temp I walk away and don't return until my remote thermometer tells me the meat is done.

I just came full circle back to a 22 WSM after owning a Hunsaker, Rec Tec, LSG IVC and Shirley FAB the last few years. WSM is rock solid. All of them made excellent food. Including the pellet, however, it was my least favorite.
