Reply to "quality of BBQ on cookshack vs traditional log burning offset?"

It will come down to your taste buds. I've seen many log burners love their FE's and some not like them.

If it's because of the smoke flavor, that's ok. It's so subjective you have to find a smoke profile that fits your tastebuds.

I will say that many/most stick burners, so don't take this wrong, tend to oversmoke their food. I've worked with a number of people and when I see how they run their offsets, they're oversmoking their food (Lots and Lots of white smoke)

That doesn't make it bad, it makes it the flavor profile they like.

If you're wanting/liking a HEAVY smoked product, the FE might not be the one.

But the electrics can easily oversmoke the food. Couple of extra chunks of wood will get you to that creosote taste quick enough.

It's just hard in a forum to know YOUR taste profile, even when you say stick burner.

You do need to find one that will give you what you want.
