Humphrey's are phenomenal smokers!!!! Quality built and insanely insulated...
I have the Down East Beast and I am just as happy every time I fire it up as I was when I received it. 8lbs of lump charcoal gives me up to a 14 hour cook.
I was looking at a Backwoods Competitor which is about the same size, but the Humphrey's was about $1200.00 cheaper. I had a collection of 6 different smokers each having a different purpose. After getting the Humphrey's I gave them to good homes with my friends and family. A good smoker has eliminated my need for the others, I only kept a kettle for grilling steaks, burgers, and occasional chickens.
Go for it you will not be disappointed!!!
my only suggestion is to be sure of the size you want. It's easier to cook with extra room, than with not enough room. Think of your largest cook and add 20%. That is the formula I used and it worked well for me, but we all have different needs.
