Hi again, I forgot to mention my first name yesterday, it's Robert. I have been smokin' ribs, brisket, chicken and I love to grill steaks. I have been using a weber performer and about 2 years ago I bought a brinkman vertical smoker. I can pack lots of meat into it and it smokes great. The only thing is it can use alot of fuel. I use charcoal and wood on it and you have to be on top of it because it fluctuates so much. It's their heavy duty version, but isn't very thick.
Well anyway, I decided to graduate to a well made smoker/grill. I am 67 and it's just my wife and I, my daughter and son in law come over when I do cook out. I don't need a really large unit. I have been looking at the meadow creek pr36, the good one open range and was about to decide between them, then I came upon the Yoder and Horizon smokers. I really liked the lang but you can't grill on them unless you get the hybrid. So this is where i'm at, I have been looking at the reviews on this site and they have been helpful. Does anyone have any suggestions or more info on any of these or others?
Thanks, Robert
