WSM
No shelves, no wheels, no handles, no place to put the lid, non insulated, gets hot on the outside, no ash pan, difficult to add wood chunks during a cook, difficult access to meat on the lower rack, not good for grilling, flimsy door, primative vents, leaks air, possible fire hazard, burns fuel like its free, overpriced.
Other than that..it's all good.
WSM or UDS
Something tells me there is more than meets the eye with the sudden intense adoration of the PBC around here.
portability was left out. akorns and eggs are not that easily moved.
whats the price on one website dosent sayA BarrelSmoker is powder coated, firebrick lined, has a smoker plate(real smoker), use with water pan or without and uses a dolly to roll around easily. Uses a modest amount of fuel and is all American made.In my opinion, the best value from all that's been listed. I've tried and used most talked about and since I make BarrelSmokers, that's what we come up with. Good luck with your choice. Steve.
Over $700.00 here.For all their functions and abilities, plus portability, the big steel kegs for the win.
I don't know why you all keep posting:crazy:
