I have been trying to figure out what the differences are between the Chubby G2 and G3. I'm really just trying to decide if the G3 is inferior to a point where it should be avoided. I've done a search of the forums but found nothing. After doing a little research this is what I've found.

G2 $1415
G3 $1199
These are differences noted from the spec. sheets found on their website.
Weight. I don't know what accounts for the difference.
G2 160 lbs
G3 145 lbs
Racks
G2 1/4" Nickle Plated
G3 1/8" Stainless

G3 6 to 10 lbs
Cooking Time
G2 8 to 12 hours
G3 6 to 10 hours
Meat G2
10 to 12 slabs of baby backs
4 to 6 briskets
4 to 6 boston butts
Meat G3
9 slabs of baby backs
2 to 3 briskets
2 to 4 boston butts
I sent a email to Backwoods asking what are the differences between the Chubby G2 and G3.
Response from Backwoods
The G2 is handmade in Texas and is carbon steel on the interior.
The G3 is the imported version the the G2 and the interior is stainless steel.
If anybody knows anything about the G3 I would value your opinions.
