I've been trying to do some research on what is the best smoker to add to my collection. My main smoker I have right now is a Lang 84 Stick Burner as you see in the last picture attached. I love the Lang smoker and I never plan to stop using it. Its a lot of work and it would be nice to add a second smoker that I don't have to babysit as much. Before I was thinking about a more easy smoker I had plans on buying a Myron Mixon H20 smoker but thats another stick burner. My lang smoker turns out a good product. It was my first smoker Ive ever used and I would not change my first choice. I seen it on BBQ Pitmaster on TV and if the pros are using it than it must be a good smoker.
My two choices are a second smoker is the Myron Mixon Vulcan Gravity Feed Smoker that uses charcoal and wood chunks or a smoker not many know exist yet and thats a Yoder Cimarron Pellet Smoker attached in the picture below. It has over 2200 Sq inches in cooking space and its a very cool looking smoker. Many know Yoder makes a top of the line pellet smoker. So if Im going to go pellets I plan on buying the Cimarron that will start being delivered they say in March. My fear is even after I buy my second smoker Im still going to be using my Lang smoker at the same time and Im not sure how much diffrence one pork shoulder cook on my land will be different from a pellet smoker. I know the Myron Gravity smoker would be closer to what Im doing now but I don't like the way it looks. My lang is impressive looking I think and the new Yoder in the picture with those wheels look very impressive also but that Myron Mixon Gravity smoker don't look very cool I. Looks are not important as much as taste but You want a smoker that looks cool and that Cimarron is for sure a head turner.
Does anyone have a stick burner and a pellet smoker that can tell me how different it would be on my end product.
Does anyone use a gravity feed and a stick burner that can tell me how close they might be to the same end product. I think the end result the gravity feed would be my best choice.
Im all set to pull the trigger on a Yoder Pellet smoker but not sure if Im going to be disappointed when I compare the meat from the Yoder to my Lang Stick Burner. Pellets make really no ash and my Lang makes a ton so I can see how pellets would not do the same.
But I need opinions and advice. I sometimes smoke for 3 days straight and a pellet smoker would sure help me overnight. I have thought about starting stuff out in my lang and transferring it to the pellet smoker when I did not need both smokers full at once. but that would only work part of the time.
You just don't see many videos on the pellets smokers saying it has a nice smoke flavor etc. I know with my lang smoker I might be adding too much smoke at times.
I have read that on a pellet smoker the slower I cook it the better when it comes to smoke but Im not always going to want to start out at 180 degrees as they suggested.
Any Help?
