Looking to buy a smoker

First off, I've never smoked before but it's something I've always wanted to do. I live in ND and don't really know many people that do smoke up here. I'm just looking for something to start out with. Any suggestions?

Time for a new smoker. I probably will go for another stick burner.
No experience with stick burners, sorry.

I've looked at them and everyone that I know that has one likes it. I don't know if it is quite for me, but it falls in that under $500 category so it's in the mix.

I already have an electric smoker. Never use the thing.

This morning when I looked in the back yard and saw the offset missing my first thought was not a pleasant one as I saw the electric smoker sitting in it's nice little corner.

Is the WSM made only for charcoal? Do you prefer minion or snake method with the WSM?

If your a bargain shopper and can get by with your electric then summer closeouts are just around corner. Lowes and HD along with Walmart and Target will run great closeouts. I got a second WSM 22" for 110.00 and if Id waited 2 weeks I could have had for 79.00 at Target. I also picked up a OK Joes Highland stick offset for 125.00 at Lowes when the closed out the old inventory when Charbroil bought them. I later converted it to a reverse offset and a few other mod's and sold it for 350.00.

Just check brickseek they will drop they always do.

Minion.

Snake method's tougher (nearly impossible) to pull off as far as I can tell for a long cook on the WSM. There's just not enough surface area.

Unless you have a different understanding of it than I do.

I use the minion method it works so never needed to experiment with the snake. I have read up on it just didnt peek my interest enough to change.

I like the look of their wok burner. That looks right up my alley. Their smokers have much more automation than what I am looking for. Too bad they don't have something a little more old school.

I was at ATBBQ a few weeks ago. Those competition carts are amazing. With an amazing price tag. Always wanted a Yoder Wichita but could never convince myself to pay for one. I do well enough on things 1/3rd of the price and just can't pull the trigger. You know how much meat I could smoke for the extra $1000-1500 I would spend on a Yoder with a mid range, make some mod's cardboard boxed cooker. Ribs for days.

You should have bought every WSM 22 just to resale. Those retail about 400.
