I just bought a GMG Davy Crockett. I had to think about it because it's relatively small (200 sq in) but it's a wood pellet and highly portable. At the end of the day, I figured I was better off smoking in smaller quantities anyway and this is something I can load in the truck and carry easily. I still want to build the Alton Brown-style terracotta smoker but this will get me going sooner with fewer excuses for delay ...
