So - now that the world is reopening we're starting to get out again. I've been using Weber Smokey Joe's FOREVER. The one I have is pretty beat up and with a couple tailgates planned it's time to think of a replacement so Brethren help me spend my money.
Needs - Potability since I'll use this mostly at tailgates occasionally at neighbor things and maybe camping once a years. On it I'll cook 90% Burgers & Brats occasional chicken/steak - I doubt I'll ever use it to smoke anything. I find the 144sq/in Joe a little small
I started on the mGrills C4 as it's a slick unit, before I realized how small it is and it was out.
I then looked at Pk and liked the Go, Hibachi, & TX - the stand of the Tx is quite appealing, but the price is a bit questionable. Not sure if the Hibachi is compatible with their stand or not as I don't think I'll ever need the flip ability of the Go.
Best budget option is clearly the Jumbo Joe
Last one I looked at was the Akorn Jr. - again good to budget, love the orange color it's available in - con is only slightly bigger than the current.
So what would you do if you were in my shoes?
