Got me a Traeger Timberline 1300

Well I've been pit shopping for a while and finally decided that until I can afford my dream Vault on a custom cart that I'll wait on a cabinet style smoker. I had been wanting a pellet smoker for a while now just to have as another outside cooker and for those lazy days. But I wanted something with capacity for when family comes down and I can spend time with them instead of adding a split every 40 min or tuning a brisket every few hours. I had previously looked at the Traegers but didn't care for them until I saw the Timberline series.
I will be keeping my offset but probably selling the Weber Genesis to get a smaller gas grill. I'll still be using the offset too but this I think is going to be a great way for me to hang out with the kids in the pool and not have to worry or check near as often. I've been cooking on an offset since I was a teenager so hopefully the learning curve won't be too bad.
First cook will be this weekend, 3 butts and some baby backs. You'll have to excuse my son's traitor hat, I just can't get him to wear Cowboys gear

Honestly he would have became a fan of wherever Andy Dalton would've gone. Now he's been rooting for the Bengals so long he's a true fan. I did take him to see the Bengals vs Texans for Christmas eve and he got to meet Andy again.
