I will add this,
I have BBQ-ed on a Weber when we first got married when life was simpler before kids. Swore it was the best method. My BBQ amazed neighbors and friends. Did this for first 5 years.
When the kids came along and life was more hectic I switched to gas for speed and convenience and yes my food quality suffered. Did this for next 10 years.
Went back to Weber Kettle for next 10 years and got back high quality food.
But for the last year I have been experimenting with a Trager portable we bought for the MH. At first I was not convinced but after a few uses I was. Let me tell you I am fully convinced that the best food is coming off it. Now when I get home from a trip the Trager gets unloaded and put on my back patio to use at home as well.
Tri Tips, ribs, pork butt, brisket, chicken, pizza, pork chops, you name it. All of it is better from the pellet smoker.
For what it is worth the Trager is much less cost than the Green Mountain. But when my Trager burns up I will explore the Green Mountain because of the ability to hold a small turkey.
