I have an electric MES 40 and a FastEddy PG500 and love to grill/smoke. I have also owned cheap models of a traditional horizontal stick burner and a super cheap drum smoker, bot those are long gone now.
The PG500 was a lot to spend, but I love it. I have always admired the gravity feed smokers from afar. I have always wondered what they were like, especially since I see a lot of cooks using them now. So I thought I would post here to see what opinions/experiences people have with them. For example, can you just burn wood and not charcoal in a gravity feed? What brand/model seems to be a good purchase? All the ones I have looked at online have been very pricey. I see a lot about stumps, but again even a smaller one is $$$.
So please sound off with any gravity feed smoker experiences. I am trying to determine if I should consider one, and if so how much its going to cost me.
