Hello,
New here, looks like a great place! I've been looking at Yoder & Pitts & Spitts for a few weeks now, I think I'm settled on the P&S.
Looking to upgrade (a big upgrade) to a Pitts & Spitts Maverick 1250 - My question is, has anyone here used the upright smokebox on the P&S pellet smokers? I'd love any feedback, its an expensive option but I don't want to regret not getting it.

Thanks!

Re: Pitts & Spitts question
Most of the upright smokers are used as a warming option.The upright portion has a significant heat loss compared to the main (cooking) portion. My opinion, I would not pay extra for this option.Pitts and Spitts make great smokers and you will not be disappointed.
How bout some more beans Mr.Taggert? I'd say you've had enough!

Thanks for the feedback! I was thinking of maybe using the upright for cold smoking

Re: Pitts & Spitts question
You can easily cold smoke in the main chamber. Here is a good review on one of there pits,

Re: Pitts & Spitts question
Usually, if the smoker is not the cheapest, then it allows you to make both hot and cold smoked products. I'm sure Pitts and Spitts is a cool buy.

Re: Pitts & Spitts question
I have a Pitts & Spitts Maverick 2000 without the upright smoke box. If you have any questions on the Pellet smoker itself, let me know.
