Wife offered to get me a smoker for Fathers Day. Didn?t see any recent post on it. Electric, wood, gas?

Those Traegers get expensive quick. How big of one do you need really? The bigger Traegers seem only about $200 more, but do they use a lot more pellets for the big ones?

I had a buddy say that the electrics are the way to go?

What are your experiences?
