I have no idea how to paste a pic here, never really tried and know everyone will give me shit about seeing a "pretty red x" where the pic is supposed to be, so here's a link:

The first one is a classic. The fire box off to the right and a larger area to put the meats. I don't know if $739 or so is in your price range, but this is a nice one.
Just don't go for the flimsy stuff. These are made out of 1/4" steel. I would have nothing less. This keeps the heat in. I have something similar to the "Patriot" and I've smoked a brisket and two racks of ribs at the same time (I had to be a little "inventive" on the meat positioning, but they turned out great).
Hope that helps.
BTW, I've tried the pecan shells to smoke with...it turns out great!

Thanks for the info. Rep heading your way.
Those look really nice but I want something smaller.
