Backwoods Competitor is a solid cooker and can probably handle all your requirements.
Backwoods competitior
8 shelves 19.5 X 19.5 (3 inches apart - not enough space for brisket or pork butt)
Both have pros and cons. Just gotta figure out what is important to you.
thanx to all for the info & the help. that backwoods sounds just about right capacity & weightwise.This is true. If you are loading with butts 4 racks of 4 butts is about the most you can do unless you order with extra sliders, then you could get in 6 racks at 4.5 inches apart = 24 butts. Add convection and 6 butts per rack might be cookable for commericial/catering - not for competition.
I love your Backwoods too Papa.I love my Backwoods..'nuf said

Hmm good idea KC, I've been doing the same myself over the last few months. I am tossing around the idea of getting myself a BWS Competitor for catering. The only thing is I want a nice looking trailer set up and unfortunately do not weld nor want to pay a welder. I have also been looking at the big stick burners like the Klose and Langs...I think I'm going to start hitting up Mike for some commissions. I had another guy tell me he was ordering one last week too.

All due respect,. I have cookers that will cook a whole hog but they are not standard models. They are custom.:wink:
exactly. i had to look @ what i could pull in my catering trailer, weight(gas consumption on the vehicle),since i vend more than compete-capacity, & labor intensity.seems the best bang for my buck. plus, i've not heard of anyone burning 1 out....:-D. thanx for all the help folks. now just the wait to get it.....
