I have a lot of charcoal cookers, Humphrey’s Long Weekender, Weber Summit Kamado, Weber kettles 22 & 26 plus now I even have an OKG Bronco Pro Drum but I’ve always wanted an offset, for the last two years it’s been a constant search but funds never align with available cookers.
So I’m trying to get honest feedback of the taste & quality of the end product when using an offset vs a charcoal cooker. Let’s assume all things being equal as far as skill running each pit. Is the offset really THAT much better vs an experienced pit master using a charcoal cooker? Am I just obsessing about what I don’t have, like the hot girl in school or is that much better?
Obviously it’s a lot more effort & there are times when the charcoal cookers, especially the Humphrey’s with its set it & forget cooking gets a little boring. But I’ll probably have to sell a cooker or two to fund the offset so before I do anything I’ll regret I’m hoping to hear from folks who have had or currently have both & what their honest opinions are about the quality of the end product.
