            18.5" WSM and a 22.5" Weber Kettle for the past few months. Before that it was an old Coleman electric smoker and Charbroil gas grill.

            I know you should never say never, but we're never going back to electric smoker or gas grill.

              I've cooked on a 18" Weber and my son has a 26" Weber, so I am familiar with them. You might check out Meatheads reverse sear set up. I really works well as does his smoking set up. The fuse or snake method works, also. Currently I cook on a Big Green Egg. Like you I love charcoal and have left gas and electric behind. Before my BGE I cooked on a water smoker similar to the Weber Smokey Mountain.

                  Fireboard: The Ultimate Top Of The Line BBQ Thermometer

                  Fireboard Labs Product Photo Shoot. Kansas City Commercial Portrait and Wedding Photographers --Kevin Ashley Photography
                  With the ability to monitor up to six temperatures simultaneously with either Bluetooth or Wifi on your mobile phone, tablet, or computer, Fireboard is the best digital thermometer we've tested.

                  Masterbuilt MPS 340/G ThermoTemp XL Propane Smoker


                  This is the first propane smoker with a thermostat, making this baby foolproof. Set ThermoTemp's dial from 175o to 350oF and the thermostat inside will adjust the burner just like an indoor kitchen oven. All you need to do is add wood to the tray above the burner to start smokin'.

                  GrillGrates Take Gas Grills To The Infrared Zone


                  GrillGrates(TM) amplify heat, prevent flareups, make flipping foods easier, kill hotspots, flip over to make a fine griddle, and can be easily rmoved from one grill to another. You can even throw wood chips, pellets, or sawdust between the rails and deliver a quick burst of smoke.

                  The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy


                  The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It is absolutely positively without a doubt the best bargain on a smoker in the world. Period. This baby will cook circles around the cheap offset sideways barrel smokers because temperature control is so much easier.

                  Finally, A Great Portable Pellet Smoker


                  Green Mountain's portable Davy Crockett Pellet Smoker is one mean tailgating and picnic machine. But it's also gaining popularity with people who want to add a small, set it and forget it pellet smoker to their backyard arsenal. And with their WiFi capabilities you can control and monitor Davy Crocket from your smart phone or laptop.

                  Heat Resistant Gloves With Extra Long Sleeves Hold The Hot Stuff

                  If you're using oven mitts at the grill, it's time to trade up. Say hello to these suede welder's gloves. They're heat resistant enough to handle hot grill grates, and flexible enough to handle tongs. The extra long sleeves even let you reach deep into the firebox to move hot logs without getting burned.

                  The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One


                  The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.
