Hello all,
Needing a little advice here. I currently have a 22" Weber Kettle and a K22 Pit Boss Kamado. While both are great at what they do, the bottom line is, they're both too small for my needs; I've recently been asked to cook by people-outside of my home, and the amount of stuff I'm asked to smoke, requires me to currently use both smokers at once, as well as doing multiple cooks on each. I was originally set to order the Weber Smoke Fire 36 as it looks to be pretty huge, however, I have concerns with new product launches/working the bugs out, etc. which brings me to the Lang situation...
I am considering purchasing either the 36 Hybrid, or the 36 Deluxe. One of the pros with having the Hybrid is that I could get rid of my Kettle due to the chargrill feature. This also allows me to smoke multiple types of meat at one time on the same smoker. On the other hand, I like the warming box feature on the Deluxe. Even more intriguing is that both smokers are the same price on the Lang website. Can some of you that have either smoker, chime in as to advantages, disadvantages, lessons learned, or "if I could do it over, I'd..." While I know that the 36 Patio is too small by itself, it helps that my wife told me that I MUST purchase any size larger than that.
Thanks in advance
