Planning on getting an electric smoker and have been reading reviews over the last few weeks. Looking at something in the 30lb capacity range. I've seen numerous in the $300 or less range but the reviews are hit or miss with some very poor due to craftsmanship, the ability to accurately hold temps and in some cases unable to generate temps over 220F.
The one from Sausage Maker seems well built but I'm hard pressed to find reviews. I have no problem spending the money if I know it is worth it as it's going for $900. I'm also kicking around the Bradley's.
I would be looking to use it for cold smoking as well as larger quantities of ribs, pork shoulders etc so the ability for cold smoke as well as temps in the low to mid 200's are a must.
Anyone have any suggestions/insight based on personal experience?
