Hello Everybody!
New Guy Here, Currently using WSM and Guru Wifi. I am on the verge like if Humphreys would have been answering their phones on Friday I would have ordered a Battle box. Then while overthinking my purchase I started to look at other pits that I had ruled out(mostly due to price) and thought maybe I will spend some more money.

Here is my issue, as stated using a WSM now and upgrading to insulated cabinet smoker. The manufactures don't always come out and say this is reverse or not and its sometimes not that apparent. I know if I ask which is better I will get various answers depending on the person.

So!! is there any major disadvantage to using a plain vertical vs a reverse flow?

The two Pits on the docket are:
Humphreys-Battle Box
or
Lone Star Grillz-Mini Insulated Vertical Smoker

More about me and cooking style, I would say 70% of the time when cooking butts or brisket it will be at high heat 325-350 using water in the pan.
