After doing some reading tho, it appears a cheap bullet smoker with mods to the door to seal it better work decent for overnighters. Even the cheapest of models, like KMart/Sears, will work alright and cook for maybe 8 hours on one load of charcoal holding temps around 250* without having to constantly watch it. That can be harder with an offset.
The more expensive bullets like the Weber SM, still under $200, can go 12+ hours with NO mods. They're ready out of the box, but I'd need that permission thing again.... |
OK KEN !!!
ALL the men on the forum give you their permission...!
