One cooker that kicked my butt was the COS.
Cheap Offset Cooker. I had a new Braunfels Black Diamond craigslist 50$ deal that was OK but a lot of work. Sold it for much more than I paid for it after about 4 hours of cleanup and high temp paint. Apparently the original heavy steel were somewhat sought after. I think nothing literally screams Texas BBQ like an offset cooker. A BBQ Chiminea if you will with a blend of woods that include Mesquite. Not to much, just enough to make the neighbors peek.
Back in the game with a COS. Inaugural cook is always a couple of Fattys (smoked breakfast sausage whoever invented the Fatty should be awarded a medal)
