I use to do comps years ago with a stick burner and at my age that got old staying up all night. I’m looking at starting back doing some backyards at first and I have a pit boss vertical 5. My question is are those good “enough” to start doing some backyards and will that do a quality job to win. I will eventually get a stumps (maybe) but just want to get a few under me first if the pellets will work for now. I will eventually go pro. Comments? Ideas?
Also, the pit boss series 5 vertical in smoke mode it smokes like crazy. but when on any temp setting like 250/275 which is about all I use, not so much. I was thinking treager for my second one but really want a good smoke and not all that heat spikes that the pit boss has (if possible out of a pellet). Bottom line just looking for a top quality pellet that I can use and feel confident I can win in comps.. I love the gravity but not the price. but not sure you can get the quality of smoke ring/taste out of a pellet as you can a charcoal gravity... Thanks
