New Buyer question (super newb)
Posted: Thu Jun 14, 2018 9:56 am
I want to get a pellet smoker. I have grills, a barrel smoker and an offset smoker, but want to try a pellet smoker. I know nothing, other than what I've read online, and this forum (great source of info!). A couple people I know swear by their pellet smokers, so I want to try one.
I have a generous but not unlimited budget. My real problem is I'm not sure what features I want to make sure I get. Some mention having two temp readouts--target temp and actual temp. Some mention having a meat temp. Cleanability seems to be an issue with some. Reliability with others. I probably won't want to grill on it, I've got a Weber I love, although if y'all insist it's worth it, I'll consider it.
I've read dozens of posts, and haven't seen a newbie "what to get" thread lately. So here goes... what to get?
Suggestions, feedback, ideas? Thanks!!
