I have been thinking about getting the CS. I noticed that Cabella's has something called a Smokette II...What the difference between that unit and the smokette on this website?

I am a little leary. I have been using a Big Green Egg for 3 years and am a little nervous...The BGE does a great job, but I need more cooking space.

I have also been thinking about a model 50, but not sure I want to make that leap...given I have never tasted the final product from a CS. Any advice.

Gotta tell ya', George, that I can't believe that you WOULDN'T be more than satisfied with the finished product from a CS.

Until I got my 50, the only thing remotely similar I had ever used was my Weber grill. I'm here to tell you there is NO comparison.

Get the 50, or get the Smokette - whichever your comfortable with. Thing is, you get the Smokette, you'll wish you had gotten the 50. I wish I had the 350, but there's no way I could lift it, let alone afford it. Yet... Big Grin

Besides...if you aren't satisfied, I think Stuart and the folks would rather you send it back than keep it and be unhappy...but you won't want to.

You might think before you buy the CS. I've had mine 1 month and my friends and family WON'T GO HOME. Enough is Enough UNLESS they start bringing the food and spirits. I already wish I had the CS50. Every Monday I go to work and everyone want's to know what I smoked this last weekend! I guess I'm gonna feed them brisket and AHHH's beans on the 21st (then they'll stay over too). Be prepared!!!!!!!!!!
George, one thing to consider is where you're planning to store the smoker. Even with a cover, I don't think I'd leave it out in a foot or so of snow - it's likely to get into the electrical system as it melts. That said, the advantage of the Smokette is that one person can lift it up and carry it around. The model 50 has wheels, but if you've got steps up to your deck or such...
