For my husband....he really likes your food and wants to try. Getting him a smoker for a present!
Sometimes it's extremely difficult. Try to explain to my friend's wife, while she is standing in front of the 6 models at Menards (while she occasionally covers the phone to yell at her kids to get off/down/away from that), that it depends on how he likes to cook. She tells me she uses a natural gas grill but her husband likes to use charcoal because he considers it 'more manly' (her words, not mine).
So I tell her he may want a charcoal smoker instead of gas or electric...she says she doesn't see one right there. I suggest he may like a pellet grill? She says he wants a smoker not a grill...grrr she doesn't understand.
So she says, what brand is good....ummmm...well Masterbuilt? Smoke Hollow? Camp Chef? She says OOOHH, they have a Smoke Hollow, do I get the gas or electric. I try to explain the differences and she say...I don't think I want him messing with a propane tank...I'll get the electric.
Now what kind of chips? Oh boy.
So in the end I tell her...whatever you get him will be fine for someone just starting out...but expect that if he likes it...he will want to pick something for himself in a few months.
Hope I did the brother solid...
I hate getting these calls...How do you handle them?
