Check this one out Ray,company founded by a Colorado veteran. I've had great meals with this smoker,requires a little bit more work than some of the others mentioned here but it's worth it in my opinion. https://pitbarrelcooker.com/?sscid=41k4_pxxxk

What's inside?

I could have plugged it into the outlet on the patio wall behind, but I'm too damn sore/lazy from taking care of the lawn.

Pork shoulder for pulled pork and carnitas.
And a couple pics for Ray of the cheap route.
Pretty basic setup, no WiFi or fancy programs. I am not a set it and forget guy. I like to experiment and keep an eye on process.
We also use it for other cooking and baking as much as smoking.Attachment 81341Attachment 81342
Thanks for the smoker picture. I typically have access to scrap pieces of pipe and have always thought about just building my own smoker and had always envisioned a vertical smoker.
Finally decided to just hold out and buy something since all of this new technology takes a lot of the guesswork out of things.
I have a 4' piece of .500 wall 24" for same purpose.

Nice...Now I want meatloaf.!
Pork ribs, smoked for who knows how long? probably 3-4 hours, Then wrapped in foil
Dry rubbed with chipolte chili pepper, garlic powder, some S&P. Wrapped in foil for 2 hours with a Honey, pineapple juice, brown sugar and melted butter glaze. Opened foil for last hour. Forgot to snap a pic after it came off the grill. These are left overs for either dinner tomorrow, or lunch sunday.

Am i the only one who's cooked anything the last 2 -3 weeks. or you folks not allowed to cook outdoors ;)
Just not posting or eating leftovers. Thawed out a bunch of leftover brisket and had sandwiches for lunch. Thawed leftover pulled pork and made carnitas earlier this week. Still have more in the freezer.
I'm better at grabbing pictures before it's cooked and eligible for being eaten. I get distracted at that point. :-D
Minions want ribs in the smoker tomorrow, pulled out a 5lb rack to thaw.
Ribs here tomorrow as well. In the fridge now soaking in some spices.
I think I'd need to put a snorkel in the smoker today.
That's why we did ours Sat nite.
I always forget to take after pics. There were no left overs. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...369b7a53ab.jpg
King Doops had pork spareribs on sale, this slab was $6.
I dry brined with kosher salt and sugar overnight. Spread Frank's RedHot on it and added rub.
Six hours in the pellet smoker and an hour rest in the oven.
