Take a look at the Landmann Smokey mountain vertical smoker with the drawer for the wood box and water pan. I use the gas model. Easy holds 6 12 lb turkeys. I’ve smoked chickens, turkeys, ribs, brisket, ham and butts.
Masterbuilt at Lowe's is the best bang for the buck that I have found: Model 20071117

A Traeger or Masterbilt. QVC has Masterbilt. I had 3 Masterbilts’. Gave one to the fire department for their help gave another to my mechanic and I kept the small mini one for myself. Hope that helps. PS QVC gives you 30 days to try it out. Then you can do monthly payments!
What are you wanting to smoke?
I was posting to the other day Who wanted to know which smoker to buy. I don’t know what he’s going to smoke. I smoke just about everything
Masterbilt gas smoker is my choice loads of racks,easy to control temperature and not expensive!
Smokin makes for good eaten.
I made mine out of an old barrel.
Little Chief and Big Chief have always been good smokers. Simple and cheap.
Big Chief will hold about 20 lbs salmon fillets on five racks.
Check out a Little or Big Chief by Lure Jenson. Electric and uses chips and chunks. I have used them (and still do) for smoking hundreds of salmon and all kinds of other fish and meat etc. Reasonably priced and they do a good job for just smoking!
Stay away from pit boss pellet smokers from Lowe’s it’s a low end Traegar product with horrible customer service. Traegar is now middle of the road at best. Want to burn some cash? Look at Yoder. I have and habitually use a green mountain pellet, a brinkman pitboss offset stick burner, a Yoder ys480 (favorite) as it reaches temps above 700f with GrillGrates and down as low as 150f. I no longer have the Bradley, Masterbuilt, joe, or brinkman electric (the only one of the 4 l wish I still had) due to persnicketiness/just plain old junk, and storage issues. For the money and if all you want to do is smoke food every now and then I’d get the brinkman electric. Looks like a red R2D2 and is about as reliable as it gets for $80. You can do 2 whole turkeys at once in that lil’ bastard and they will be good. Unless you want to take up a new hobby I would stay away from anything using actual fire as the heat source. Read/YouTube about brining/smoking fish it’s a bit of a process, but anyone can do it.
I guess Lure Jenson is no longer part of Little or Big Chief.....they are their own brands now!
@easternoz-I like what I see!
