I cannot even bbq, more less use a smoker! Before my husband suffered a TBI he did all the BBQ'ing so I never messed with it as he was the master. Smoking just seems like a huge, involved process that I am uncomfortable trying, but baking/roasting I CAN do! Suppose that is why I enjoyed Super_Dave's posts so much as I could live vicariously through his food adventures!
Smoking and BBQing can be as simple or as complicated as you want it to be.
I started out with a simple (and cheap) Brinkman's electric water smoker. These are very common and sold at places like Walmart and Home Depot for $60-$80. Just put hot water in the pan, add a few water-soaked chunks of hickory or mesquite around the electric element and you're ready to go. I cooked 4 chickens at a time on 2 racks on mine all the time. Rub them with your favorite spices and inject them with Cajun Injector Creole Butter. Plop them on the racks and go away for a while. They're done when the leg bone gets real wiggly and pulls free. The hot water evaporating from the pan makes for super moist chicken/turkey/roasts. Easy.
Like several here, I now have a GMG Davey Crockett pellet grill which travels with me in my Full Timer life. Very easy to put a Tri-Tip on it and then let it slowly cook to perfection. But I still miss my water smoker.
