Traeger Lil' Tex Elite or Weber Smokey Mountain 22.5" Cooker Smoker?

[bigsteve77]

Hi All,  My current smoker the Smoke Hollow 4-in-1 Combo Grill has rusted away. Even after seasoning and making the suggested customization , covering it..etc. the Florida weather got to it.  The timing to replace it is perfect as i was awarded a gift card where i can purchase one of these two smokers.  1 -The Traeger Lil' Tex Elite or 2. The Weber Smokey Mountain 22.5" Cooker Smoker. I have read many pros and cons about the Traeger but wanted to get y'all feedback on which one I should get.  Any feedback would be appreciated.

Love my Traeger no issues. If you call them direct to order they throw in free cover, free shipping, free rub.

Steve, I too have a Traeger and love it.

One of the few "set it and forget it" smokers.
