Full Fledged Farker
This is my first post, so let me start by saying "hello." I've been gilling for years and feel that I've mastered it well. I've done some smoking in inexpensive bullets and have had the small Brinkmann vertical smoker which I think I got from WalMart or HomeDepot. I've tried smoking on the grill, with expected results. I've decided to get serious about it. After doing considerable research, I've just purchased a Weber Smokey Mountain. I'ver read nothing but great things and I'm looking forward to it's arrival. Because we have larger gatherings at our house (where I'm always expected to put on a show) I'm also getting ready to purchased a much more formidable smoker. I'm not interested in the "set and forget" styles form Treager, etc. I'm comitted to tending my smoker which to me seems like half the fun. I've got my choices down to two: The Brinkmann Stillwater Limited and the The Brinkmann Cimarron Limited. The only difference I can tell between the two is that that Stillwater has a propane igniter. I think size-wise, they're the same. I would very appreciate your comments, suggestions, and advice. I've read that a lot of well known smokers have suggested modifications to do. I'm hoping at about $1000, these will be good out of the box so to speak. Thanks in advance for the expert advice!
