A Weber Smokey Mountain will hold heat for 7-10 hours before you need to stoke it. I'd go that route before I bought an electric one. I'm sure that type does fine as well though

I have a Brinkmann charcoal smoker but it requires tending too every few hours for the 8-10 hour smokes I do for a pork butt. So I don't want another charcoal smoker even though I do know the Weber one is better. I am just looking for an alternative for when I want to smoke day or night with little to no monitoring.
