Pellet smoker or stick burner?

The best smoker and most economical if a barrel smoker. Hands down.

Sorry I dont know about barrel smokers what is the difference?

I was trying to look along the lines of a pellet smoker.

Don't know about yoder...have been using Rec-Tec for three years now with excellent results both smoking and grilling.

If you are not stuck on a pellet smoker, look at the Weber Smokey Mountain. So easy to control the temp and I have done some great bbq with it.

Both are good. You might also check out Blaz'n Grills. Built in Beatrice, nice heavy build, new controller works very well.

I have a side fire box smoker, a lot more work than pellet and electric, but love the end product.

Brinkman Trailmaster with added steel tuning plates and a few other bells and whistles $350 at Home Depot a few years ago

Bought a Rec Tec last summer to replace my old Traeger. Absolutely love it. Keeps temperature on point, can smoke low at 180 and gets up to 500. Bought the grill grates makes a nice addition for grilling.

I love Weber products, Have a weber Genisus grill and love it and also used to have a smokey mountain but I was looking for something a little different. I was mainly looking at pellet because I wanted to spend my time on meat prep, mopping, etc rather then always trying to control the temp. Also, I cook overnight a lot of times and I want to be able to have faith in the machine to control the temp.
