I want my smoker to look like a smoker

This too shall pass :thumb:

Mak would be the only one I'd consider for a pellet.

Function over form for a tool IMO.

If I were to buy a pellet grill again (which I promised myself I wouldnt do) the Mak grills have always appealed to me most amongst the higher end grills. I'd like to try some food off an FEC-100 too...maybe I have when judging and didnt known it, but I want to knowingly try it.

Someone need to take his Shirley out on a date.

And Not like a gas grill........?

I was thinking the Assassin version looks very similar to their regular smokers.

The heart wants what the heart wants.

And we all a little crazy...sometimes anyway.

I'm a "form follows function" kind of guy - but if you can get a pooper that looks enough like a smoker to make you happy, go for it.

If you want it to look like a smoker, glue a poster of the Rat Pack on it. All of those guys smoked, like chimneys.

I say just put a split on top of the pellet hopper...then you can pretend its a real smoker.

Kinda like the playing cards in the spokes of your bike so you could pretend it was a motorcycle.

Not sure but I think my Rec Tec looks like a smoker to me... or at least it is smoking lol :wacko:

I'd like to have one of these for the weekend trailer/lake.....just seems a little expensive for 15 cooks a year.:sad:

If it produces the same as the Cookshack PG500, they make the best hamburgers I've ever ate. Nothing better than a little flame love on grilling.

If you are at the American Royal this year, stop by Friday evening and visit. I might have a slice of brisket around 6-7PM.
