I have the electric version, but it comes with the ability to use charcoal by removing the element and inserting a pan. No vents in the top lid, so I've only used it as an electric. It was my first smoker, and what got me hooked on doing what I do.

I don't have one, but they'll save you a ton of money on car insurance
