Reply to "Pellets or Electric"

I think the pellet smoker produces less smoke flavor than the electric.

The pellet smoker has a higher airflow to keep combustion going and the pellets are burning with an open flame. In the pellet smoker I had, it made minimal smoke flavor when above 200 deg. Still a nice flavor, just not real smoky. Plus smoking cheese is impossible.

My 008 and Smokin-It #3 can make too much smoke flavor. I have to weigh the wood or else get too much smoke which makes for bitter creosote flavors. The air exchange is very low, so much so that I don't add any moisture in a water pan to my smokes. I do 20-30# of cheese a year in my electric that my neighbors and friends love.
