I’m stuck between this Brazos DLX and the insulted gen 2. If it’s worth spending the extra money to not have to worry about maintaining the fire box the whole cook, I’ll spend the money

@@dondechello I actually just saw the new one today at a store. It seemed really nice. It was 1900 bucks. If you got it go for it. If not the one I have works great. Even with the insulated fire box you are going to burn wood at the same rate. You just won’t have as much temperature variance. Either way you will enjoy them.

As you know each style pit has its pluses, offsets give you a little deeper smoke flavor and color, but require more fuel for longer cooks. Four to five hrs at 250 degrees is great on a 1/4 inch offset and a basket full of charcoal briquettes. You may get a little bit more with good lump. Great Cook, wish I could taste those ribs!!!
@brandongcookingoutdoors8532 Жыл бұрын
They were good!! The basket gives about 4-5 hrs which is good for most cooks of smaller stuff. It’s also good if you are trying to get a few hrs of sleep for a longer cook.

How long do you get running splits? I am curious how much help you get from that thick steel. I have had a similar sized unit for I guess 11 or so years "11 to 14 gauge I guess" they will keep you busy playing with the fire box. The guy moved away this year but for the past 3 years I have been using a 300 gallon smoker. Friend of mine out riding bikes on a Sunday in the country passed a house with a smoker for sale in the yard they went back home that same way to stop and look at it. He paid 1800 for this barn kept smoker on a trailer. Those units will spoil you because you have to work hard to over heat it, Once heated up 2 hours could load the box with wood and was good for 10 to 11 hours holding 235 to 180. I have considered getting once of these seems to be best bang for your buck, but in the long run I am going to find myself a large smoker just easier IMO. Like your channel a lot of good info keep them coming
