Hello everyone and happy Friday to those reading today!
I recently moved across the country and sold my old Weber Genesis before the trip. I'm ready to buy myself a moving gift, and have wanted a smoker for a long time.
I'll try not to turn this into a novel...
I only want to buy one cooker, and I want it to be able to both smoke and grill/sear at high heat. Budget is <$800. I work from home, so I'm not totally restricted to set-and-forget options (and I enjoy the babysitting to some degree). Maybe this also opens the door to some older models that might not have all of the fancy apps/controls.
Initially thought I was going to get a pellet grill, but I've had second thoughts especially considering the searing aspect. I think I'm leaning more towards charcoal, but am open to anything as I don't have a ton of experience outside of gas at this point (but plenty of time to learn). Really just want to make one purchase and not have to buy any add-on's if possible.
Looking forward to hearing your recommendations with all of that in mind!
Thanks from NC
