    Another new old guy.

    I have been smoking and grilling for decades, yes I am that old. Wore out one of the Original Traeger grills. Fell into a screaming deal on a Mak 2 Star a couple years ago. As well as the usual assortment of Webers, gas grills and the fall, winter brushfires for open flame cooking goodness. I made the mistake of showing my wife a Big Green Egg, marital threats were made and comments of sleeping in the shop were heard. I am always looking for ways to improve my techniques and of course that still elusive ultimate recipe for whatever.

            Futon'd be my first choice: fold up, can still use yer shop.

            Cots can be a right treat, on a tired an weary back, GI Hilton, purty much.

            Hammock's are harder on an older man's back, but still, a worthy consideration.

            Wads of hay, in th barn, can come in a close fourth.

            Field Jacket, an/or poncho on th ground makes fifth place.

            Sixth'd be same, minus Field Jacket, or poncho.

            Seventh be bout same same, minus th ground;

            jus mud, slime, shite, or either large, sharp rocks, or sand.

            YMMV

                Welcome from Chicagoland. Is the shop big enough for the three essentials: bed, fridge, phone?
