I understand that the legalities are out of the way for these two companies, so I want to offer a comparison of sorts. I have owned a PBC for about 6 years (I guess) and have been very satisfied. Manufactured in the US, veteran owned, and superb customer service. Everything opperates jsut as advertised.
I saw the BH a couple of years ago and really liked many of the features, It seemed that they had "customized" a PBH very nicely. Some of the features and accessories that they added/offered are exactly what I had thought of doing. I like that the barrel lifts off the fire pan. the ability to hang foods and still have rack space available is nice. PBH has countered with many new hanging accessories and a hinged grate. The BH also allows the charcolal basket to be raised to just under the grate for grilling. I had the opportunity to cook on a BH last weekend and it handled a couple of racks of ribs (with Meathead's Memphis Dust) superbly.
Hopefully both companies will continue to innovate and continue to produce quality products while introducing new accessories. If I have to add another smoker to my colection, so be it.
