Hey VQ,
I'm very new to all this. I have been asking around, and looking around at several different types of smokers. I want to see what others are using "sucessfully" before I invest in something. I have attended three competitions, and have talked to quite a few of the teams about their smokers.
There are some awsome units out there. I really like the Diamond Smoker. But when it's all said and done, teams seem to win on just about everything imaginable.
As an example, Jay from "Otis and the Bird" kicks some serious BBQ ass using a couple of WSM's.
Go figure.........
I think I'm gonna start out with a couple of WSM's, and maybe when I grow up, I'll get me a Diamond Smoker, or a Klose, or a Lang, or a Tucker, or an Ole Hickory, or maybe I'll join the pellet heads.
Wow, this is confusing.
