I'm still falling in love with my big green egg. Was worried it didn't have enough grill area but when smoking meat I can stack it in pretty well and end up with great results. I can crank the heat up to 800 and sear the perfect ribeye.

I am having pretty good results with this 18.5" model Smokey Mountain - I take it apart and it fits easily in one of the bays. I have done soup to nuts in it - two turkeys at a time - and a turkey and pork shoulder together. Pork on top. I enjoy the smoking process and experience almost as much as the food. Almost.
For years I had a side fire box smoker that would do 5 shoulders at once. But moved to a no fire grill / smoker apartment as we prepared to go full time. Picked up an AOG grill and used wood chip boxes and that worked well especially for ribs...
The Weber Q2000 grill is a singular / circular burner - so I haven't tried using a small smoke box with it. But it will grill steaks - pork roasts - shrimp - etc. Going to try the wood chip box soon.

Hey flaggship1 those Webers are nice smokers. My son has a 22 inch one and it turns out some darn good bbq! Not as good as my stick burner but still good!
I'm thinking of picking one up for those times I'm not going to pull the big stick burner.

I use a Char Broil Side Smoker. I just got done doing about ten pounds of Salmon. We brine it in our own recipe, and then I cold smoke it with our own oak and hickory. My Wife then makes up vacuum packed packages for our friends and neighbors.
We've been doing this for years and the neighbors make packages of other treats to pass along as well. Candy, pastries, nuts, ect.
Merry Christmas.
I also do ribs, hams, turkeys, brisket, and even peppers.

I don't know why not. Just watch your internal meat temps and the longer it rests after you pull it off the smoker the better. I often put it in a insulated food carrier or a regular cooler and let it rest as long as several hours or even overnight

My son and I have caught plenty of salmon either out of Lake Superior or Lake Michigan. I have smoked a ton of it. I always have used a dry brine of brown sugar, kosher salt and some other spice blends.
I do the same thing as far as vacuum pack and give it away. Everyone calls it salmon candy!
Funny thing is, I can't eat it, don't even like the smell of it!
Just one of those things I guess

X2 on the resting. I but mine in a cooler packed with bath towels. Lay one on the bottom then the butt with more towels on top. I have even experimented brining up the internal temp to 202* that someone on the smoking meat forum does.

We own a Pitts and Spitts stick smoker and a Broil King Keg smoker (pictured below and similar to a Big Green Egg). We plan to take the Keg smoker with us when we go full-timing. It will easily cook for 4-6 people (did a Thanksgiving turkey on it last year), is insulated so uses very little fuel and can even be transported on a receiver hitch (not certain we will haul it this way but happy we have the option).
