Hi everyone. I'm from Western Maryland. I've been cooking, smoking, and grilling for years. Started getting more serious about it over the last couple years. I've used vertical propane smokers for years. Won a Trager Pro 22 on a raffle. So I'm getting ready to purchase a Yoder YS640S since the Pro 22 is too small. I also have a Oklahoma Joe combo that I've just started experimenting with but rarely have time to play with the smoker side.

I'm hoping. I was leaning towards the 1500 but I want to be able to transport it. From research and reading I'm afraid it will be too heavy to push into my trailer several times a year.

Welcome from SW Washington! I have the Yoder YS1500s and absolutely love it. It is very heavy and hard to move around though

Welcome to the Pit from the Florida Suncoast. I too have a Yoder 640S. Unless you have the competition cart with the larger wheels, pushing it onto a trailer frequently would be a pain in the neck (or choose the body part most approprisste). Mine lives a stationary existence and I really like it.
