I am a total noob with smoking (meat not cigarettes). But I have asked the wife and kids for a smoker for Fathers day.
I have a good supply of wood so would like to go with a wood/charcoal version. I have been reading for over an hour now and am no closer to deciding on a model than when I started. I would likely only use for small family gatherings ect...but would like a reasonably large capacity . I have seen several off the shelf models that people are making modifications to to help them work "properly". I would like to avoid this. Not that I couldnt do the mods, I just have too many projects as it is.
I have seen many delicious looking BBQ photos in the galleries. I would appreciate any advice from you chef's out there on a good smoker to get me started.
