[QUOTE="SPH, post: 1171934, member: 20580"] I wish I could have bought that one but wife would have not been happy with the pricetag so I bought this one: [url=http://www.homedepot.com/p/Char-Broil-American-Gourmet-700-Series-60-25-in-Charcoal-Grill-with-Off-Set-Firebox-14201571/203736346]http://www.homedepot.com/p/Char-Broil-A ... /203736346[/url] to replace the one I bought years ago that was falling apart: [url=http://www.brinkmann.net/outdoor_cooking/outdoor_cooking/charcoal_smokers_and_grills/details.aspx?item=852-7080-E]http://www.brinkmann.net/outdoor_cookin ... 852-7080-E[/url] Offset smoker is a lot better and holds more meat than the upright "bullet style" smokers.
