I've currently got an old New Braunfels "hondo" smoker (5-6 yrs old). It is the basic horizontal smoker with the offset firebox. I will tell you, it can get quite tedious monitoring the temperatures all the time. It is almost on its last legs and I'm wanting to get some input on the gas/propane smokers. Is it easier to maintain the temps in these? Or, do I simply need to be more dedicated (like I used to be) and make sure my temps stay within range. Any thoughts from those that have gone from fire boxes to gas smokers? Let me know. Thanks, Greg
