Hello there. A new restaurant/bar is in the works. I'm going to do a lot of smoking. Mostly for pulled pork, beef, and chicken, but also briskets, ribs, brats, and baloney chub, among other things. I've spent my entire life pouring embers into bug cinder block pits. Unfortunately, I am unable to have an open fire at this place. As a result, I'm aiming to modernize my smoking habits. Some that I've seen are the J&R and Myron Mixon smokes. Is the high price justified, or are you just paying for the name when there are others that are essentially the same item with a different name? Suggestions and personal experiences are highly valued.
