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?

I've got a big green egg, it is also dummy proof and doubles as the best grill you can own.

I love this model, and have smoked my share of ribs this season on it. I have no trouble holding temp at 200-225 on it. I got the cover for it, and it rotted through in one season however. The one thing is the smoker does not get a perfect seal, but it is still great.

Looks like the Weber Smokey Mountain is well liked. It's a little more pricey than I was hoping for starting out but I guess you get what you pay for.

Spend $75 on a tiny Brinkmann from wally mart to see if you even enjoy smoking. If you hate it, you saved money. If you like it, sell the little one to somebody who is starting out and get yourself the Smokey Mountain. Or just watch Craigslist for a used smokey.

I love that damn thing but I probably won't use it much in the summer because there's just something about sitting outside, listening to a baseball game or two, drinking beer and smoking ribs in an old school smoker.

Which model do you have?

How much meat will it hold. i.e. number of slabs and briskets?

thanks

Do a search on here. This has been discussed before. Lots of good advise in the threads.

If you were buying again; what would you buy?

Got two of them. Couldn't be happier. TONS better than my off set firebox smoker. Lots easier and produces better foods.

Both are great. Comes down to price. One is $300, one is $500.

I'm about to fire mine up now. Did you ever buy yourself something? The 18" isn't quite as pricey as the 22". You can cook for a decent sized crew with the 18".
