Moberg Backyard 24" x 50" on Sale Today

For those who are interested, Moberg put their new 24" x 50" backyard models with insulated firebox up for sale today at a similar price point to Mill Scale's 94 Gallon (24" x 48") and Franklin's 24" x 36". Not posting this to debate the merits of these pits vs. LSG, Shirley, or any of the other fine builders out there, just a PSA for those who are interested. I really like Moberg's designs and have been fortunate enough to play with a couple of his larger 500 gallon smokers.

Here is the email announcement I received today:

I am a big Sunny Moberg fan, but when I got the email a week or so ago the first time they sent one my initial thought was this is underwhelming at that price point. I like the smoker, but it sounds like no customizations which increases productivity.

I'm sure function is amazing, but I feel like the market is too competitive at that particular size to overpay for a name on a smoker. Because imo that is what you are paying for, the name. Albeit, a great name. Can't wait for a brethren to get one and post up some pics!

For right now you can get a Moberg Backyard in 2nd quarter 2020 which means April - June. I checked with Mill Scale out of curiosity and they are taking 50% deposits now for backyards delivered in December of 2020.
