Hi all,
I've been lurking on the site for about a year now. I've smoked some roasts in the past on a gas grill, which surprisingly enough, worked out fairly well. Well, now I'm looking at jumping in the deep end and getting a smoker. So I'm looking for some thoughts and opinions. I'm looking at both the Chargriller Smokin Pro and the GrillPro 34040.
From all the threads I've read, the Chargriller is a solid unit that with some mods is very effective. I've managed to source one here in Canada at Lowe's about an hours drive away for $250.
The GrillPro I'm having a bit of difficulty finding info on. Even the manufacturer website doesn't have any info. They've got it on sale for until Thursday at a local TSC for the same price. After Thursday it's back up to $300. Has anyone used one of these before? I'm assuming that it's going to require the same modifications.
I'm leaning towards the Chargriller but the GrillPro would save me a two hour roundtrip drive. Any help is greatly appreciated. I can't wait to do some smoking this summer.
Thanks,
Chris
