How to Choose a Smoker

  1. Cost: A smoker should be a long term investment. As a general rule, buy the best smoker you can afford and justify. Here are some considerations.
  2. Fuel:
    • If you just don’t have time to maintain a charcoal or wood fire for long burns, consider gas or electric. Smoke is generated by heating shavings or sawdust. You will sacrifice the authentic wood smoke flavor and the feeling of pride and accomplishment derived from managing a fire properly for a long time to produce outstanding barbecue.
