Got a Traeger 3 years ago and love the hell out of it. Already made the standard baby back ribs, brisket, boston butt, and various other dishes. Still have a prime rib roast on my bucket list
Who here owns a smoker?

Make sure you get the butcher to tie it up for you. Or if you want, do it yourself. Try to make it uniform throughout and it will cook evenly.
I have a couple of smokers....all natural wood for me.

When doing prime rib I do reverse sear. I'd go light on smoke
Pretty easy to do.

Got one of those small ones just like this. Does a helluva job for the few times I actually use it. I need to use it more.
Turkeys are a cinch to toss in for about 10-12 hours. Maybe do a ham this weekend.

Do the turkey legs turn out like the ones at Disneyland?
Taste great, Cost a lot less.
So I asked for a smoker thinking a good electric one or maybe an offset charcoal/wood burner.
The Mrs got a relatively small Weber charcoal smoker. I’ve used it a few times....and it’s aight.
But I’m already ready to upgrade.

If you want to start it and walk away for hours at a time, have to go with the pellet smoker.
If you want to sit around drinking beer shooting the shit stoking the fire and moving meat in and out of hot spots, then it's the Offset Smoker.
A new offset is expensive for a good one.
And the pellet ones aren't cheap, but not what the offsets are.
You can buy cheap on either one, but you will regret it later.

I can't stand that!
People walking around like cave people gnawing on huge pieces of meat. It's gross.
