is one Smokin' Farker
After everyone's suggestions, wife and I talked and we decided to get what I want and if its big enough to help out the BN, so be it. If not, oh well. They can figure it out. It's not like they're paying for the smoker. With that being said, something similar in size to the Assassin should be perfect for us, so we're going to go that route. So these 2 cookers seem to fit the bill for what I'm looking for without waiting 3 years on a Shirley...
Workhorse pits 1975: with 2nd shelf and cover we're looking around 3K. It has the larger 8" wheels, almost identical internal size to the Assassin and will just fit on my trailer. If we opted for the trailer it's still within my 4,500(ish) budget. Seems to be the best bang for the buck... Door seems very heavy with no counter weight.
TMG Fridge 36: Can hold (barely) 6 hotel pans so it gives me a bit more room. Starting price is more than Workhorse ($3,300) and only comes standard with the smaller 5" wheels. So I would have to change those out in order to get it on/off the trailer for sure. Te-Tru are an added cost as is the fire basket. But I like the option of having a fire basket to keep the fire off the cooker. Like the idea of cabinet style doors.
Anyone have hands on experience with either that can shed some light?
