I don't watch a lot of bbq videos but I kinda liked this guy. Start at 14:45 if you are impatient. I didn't really think it would be that lopsided the way everyone raves about their pellet cookers.

I’d be more surprised if the results were not bent toward stick burners. Having cooked extensively on both, I will be the first to say that in my opinion sticks win! That said, it is also my opinion that if running a super clean fire in a stick burner, that the difference between sticks and pellets is not huge. I have often said that I can easily obtain 90% of the smoke profile my stick burner used to lay down with 10% of the work involved. Reading through the comments from Jeremy’s (Mad Scientist BBQ) video... here is a screenshot of a comment and then Jeremy’s response:

My interest keeps getting peaked with pellet cookers. I keep fighting the urge, waiting on some stupid kind of clearance deal at wal-mart on a pit boss or something.

I was actually at this event and tried the meats. To be honest, the different was so small but still noticeable. However, when you factor in the easy of use I personally think pellets win. It really comes down to style/ how much time you have.

I’m with you here. Unless if I were competing there is no reason for me personally to put in all that work for a taste difference that I’d have to do a side by side comparison to notice.

Should also be noted that the pellet cooker he used is rumored/thought to have the most stick like flavor of them all. I wish I could of been there to try them all and experience the side by side differences myself

I have to concur wit rwalters, I run my stickburner clean and the smoke profile from my Yoder isn't far off.

In the meantime I am quite happy with the results my Mak puts out - its "convenience factor" allows me to cook when I otherwise wouldnt have time...but if I am out to cook some people the best barbecue that *I* can, it's happening on the stick burner every time.
