The family wants me to get an electric smoker just so I have more free time to socialize.
But I bet a decent electric model will run a lot more than a WSM.
Although, over the long run the price could be recouped assuming running electricity is cheaper than running coal which I believe it is.
Go with the WSM...as peviously stated, its pretty near set it and forget it...It all depends. Someone else added any smoker will work with enough fiddling...I agree witht that..as long as theres a case of beer involved, I'd even babysit my old brinkman! Ive had many a good night sitting outside with a bunch of buddys and beer and a lot of attention given to the brinkman...
I guess the bottom line is
ITS ALL GOOD !!
