Don't sell your Pecos until you come to the Spring bash. Your fellow brethren may be able to make you a believer.

Your reasons are a lot of the same ones I have for not owning a stick burner or really having the desire to get one. I don't like to be tied down so much to the smoker that I can't go run an errand or be gone from the house for a few hours. Sourcing the wood as well as letting it season and cutting it to size is another inconvenience.

The time to manage the stick burner was what changed my mind and made me go back to charcoal smokers. I work from home a lot, so a midday smoke for tonight's dinner is quite common. Unfortunately, working from home doesn't always mean I can run out back every 40 minutes. A lot of times it was more like 90 minutes. So, some times the fire would die down, then I'd add a couple sticks and then it would go too high, even when considering a range of temps. It frustrated me, and I found myself using the WSM instead. The whole ordeal was quite a painful and costly learning mistake. It made the great food leave a bitter taste in my mouth.
Do what makes you happy...

what cooker do you have? my charcoal burner is a uds and it is on the internet so I have eyes on the temp at all times. low and slow cooking for a long amount of time and still being able to run errands - priceless! |

i know everyone does it but i just cannot get myself to leave the property when i have a live fire in anything. even if my HeaterMeter were to let me know the temp was high and i know that i can close the intake from my phone i still would be worried the whole time. sometimes it sucks being paranoid.

wow, you put it way better than I could. with my charcoal smoker, I looked forward to cooking because it was easy, and the food was delicious. with the stick burner the idea of cooking was not something I looked forward to and that's not what cooking should be about. it shouldn't be a chore. thanks for the feedback!

is the data out there somewhere? |

Probably, but I'm too lazy to go search. It was a comment made by Myron Mixon in his class while we discussed the various types of smokers. He referenced one of the majors where the top five finishers all used pellet cookers, that's why I said I THINK it was the Jack.

is this the list right here? https://www.jackdaniels.com/en-us/BB...y-Top-Barbecue not that it really matters though ( in a good way). Im sure the top teams can cook in an electric oven and still win. lol |

A ceramic kamado is one super easy to run smoker.
Results are outstanding and they lock into temps and stay there.
