Hello to all. I have been reading many many posts on more websites and forums than I'd like to admit, looking for the best electric smoker within my budget. I think I've finally found it! It's gonna take a few months to save the money up, but when I do, I'm gonna buy the #3! I've not really seen any bad reviews on the smokin-it smokers. Until I can pull the trigger, I'm gonna read as much as I can on this site. Thanks in advance for all the knowledge you guys have shared.
