Lonestar Grillz in Indiana or KC

[stonerdd]

I am interested in getting a LSG vertical cabinet smoker. I have both a stick smoker and pellet grill. I like the taste of the stick smoker and the convenience of the pellet grill. Has anyone got their fire going on a LSG, then just use wood with a GURU, vs mostly charcoal with wood chunks as LSG suggests? Again, I do not want another smoker that I can't get a good rich smoke taste.

Also, does anyone have one and live in Indiana or in the Kansas City area? I would like to take a look before taking the plunge.

Probally Run Hot or Dirty.

I don't think it would run well on straight wood.. There's just not enough airflow to run a clean fire, and if you had enough, you'd probably be running pretty hot.. In other words..

What they said. You don't try to make a stick burner run on charcoal, and you don't try to make a charcoal and chunk burner a stick burner. You may get it to work, but it probably won't be pretty...
