A good choice of affordable Smokers can be had at 'Wally World' , just depends on how you want to Smoke . You can cook direct over the heat (Bullet Looking Brinkman), or use a Side fire Box on a horizontal Smoker .
Either way is a good learning tool , again , do you want set and forget , or get involved with your cook
Cruise thru our 'archives' and see what is involved . Personally I am a Wood burner and have a bit larger Smoker ;
