I have tried the electric smokers and had issues with heating elements and mother boards going out. I have an old school side firebox smoker but it doesn’t have enough space for what I’d like to smoke these days. Recommend me a verticle firebox smoker that should be able to handle 12 racks of ribs.

Thanks!

Backwoods G2 Chubby. Can cook 10-12 slabs in mine and it is a rib ccoking machine.

It makes a good quality smoke and maintains a moist cooking chamber.

This is the best value I've seen. There are better smokers out there, but I don't think you'll find a better one for $500.

Oops. Sorry, just saw you're looking for a verticle.

Hey! A few weeks ago I was driving down the road and spotted soene putting one of these out to the street and it was practically new and I grabbed it. Had no idea it was a 500 dollar trash pick.

I know nothing about how to use this as a smoker so I'm looking for info.

Also the city cut down a huge water oak across the street from me and I retained an assload of wood. Is that any good for smoking? What about a dead lemon tree?

Thanks
