I am thinking of getting a pellet smoker, mostly for the ease factor. I already use Big Green Eggs, and I'm also saving up for a really nice offset.
I'd like to spend no more than $2,500. I would really prefer to spend less than that, but I also want the best quality that I can afford. I'm looking for something that can withstand smoking in Chicago winters.
It's just me and my husband, and I usually just do one brisket at a time, a few racks of ribs at a time, etc..., so a huge cooking capacity is not what I need because I would just also use my Eggs for the few times that I would need more space.
I went to Myron Mixon's Barbecue School last year, and I really liked the shape and quality of his BARQ smokers, but they've raised the prices to more than what I want to spend on this venture. Kind of kicking myself for not just buying one then!
Thanks for any advice that you can give!
