One of my BILs asked my advice regarding getting a smoker. Knowing him as I do, I suggested not going the route of a charcoal/wood smoker as he likes simple and ease of use.
His plans for the smoker are for ribs, pork butt, sausage and fish. Budget is approximately $600. I did explain there would still be work involved, meaning he would have to clean it out after every use, as well as learn the ins and outs of operating it. I think he’s good with that. I also mentioned that certain brands of pellets are better than others, and cheap isn’t necessarily better as many of us have found with various brands of charcoal and briquette fuels.
Knowing all of this, which cooker(s) would you suggest around this price range, in addition to pellets?
I know no better place than to ask than in this forum, and your replies will be greatly appreciated!
