I have pretty much every type of smoker except for a traditional offset smoker. I do have a Karubecue C-60, but I’ve actually been pretty disappointed with it. It seriously puts less smoke flavor on my food than my pellet grill does. So that was my foray into stick burners. I want to get an offset, but I’m a bit torn over what to buy. I now have two not-cheap smokers that I’m not crazy about (the other one is a Good One Marshall). Had I not bought either of them, I could have paid for a Workhorse 1975. I should have just gone with a standard smoker, but buying the unpopular thing has always been my MO. Sometimes it works out great, sometimes it doesn’t.
Am I going to be disappointed if I buy something like an Old Country Brazos? I want to get the Workhorse 1975, but I think my wife will be pretty unhappy if I spend that much on yet another smoker. On the flip side, I’ll be pretty mad if I get the cheaper option and regret it. I was even considering an OKJ Longhorn, but I talked myself out of that. Then there’s the 1969 from Workhorse. With delivery and the cost of covers, it’s close to $600 less than the 1975. The most I’ve ever smoked at one time was 4 briskets, but that’s been one time in probably 6 or 7 years of BBQing. Whatever I choose, it’s got to be a permanent decision. I’m out of backyard space!
