Need a bigger size grill, not a smoker cause I already have one. I don't care if it's gas or charcoal just one that can produce food at a pretty good rate. Does anyone have any recommendations on one? What works for you guys?

The ones that I have seen online dont seam practical due to not having a good place to add charcoal or adjust the heat level. I need something that I can add charcoal to and not disturb the food or one that can move the coals or meat up and down for temp.

Chargriller barrel grill had a ton of space! You can always add a side smoke box later if you change your mind as well. Had mine for about 10 years. It's not a top quality grill by any means but it's cheap, and it'll cook a lot of food. I've done 6 slabs of ribs at once.

The Chargriller Models are a good choice...big , stainless(Looks good), and several burners and controls. They are in the $1000 range , but dependable.

Here is a couple I looked into. Nice stuff. The first company makes many sizes. Also search Santa Maria Grills for other options...JJ

I have a chargriller outlaw. It's a big smoker/grill. Lots of space for a good price.

I never saw one except on BBQ shows demonstrating Tri-tips in California. Bobby Flay has a high end model he uses on his grilling show. They are real nice for hard wood cooking...JJ
