BKING!
is Blowin Smoke!
I have read so many rave reviews about the Mak, and have no doubt that it is an amazing cooker. But having never tried any food from one, and most people have not tried multiple high end pellet cookers, so it is hard to get a baseline, to compare from. Only conclusion is, that I probably made the right decision for me.
I literally can not tell the difference between food smoked on my weber, and my Yoder. Now when grilling, you get some charcoal flavr, but there really isn't much diffence there either, because on when doing high heat on the Yoder, you get the fat hitting the hot diffuser plate. How were you running your vent on the Weber?
For low and slow I opened the intake 1 hole in width and kept the top vent 50% open. I think the smoke flavor INTENSITY is pretty much the same on both but it seems it’s harder to “oversmoke” on the Mak if that makes sense. To put into simpler terms...
too much campfire flavor =bad
too much wood flavor= ok
With that said I’ve always preferred high airflow cookers like stickburners for flavor
