I have a couple of Treagers.
Earlier in this thread I had this to say regarding pellet cookers.
'When done properly I think you get better quality out of the more 'traditional' smokers, however I think you get 90% of the quality for about 20% of the work with the pellet cookers.
I think pellet cookers are a great way to get started because they are so easy that you will actually use them, they are pretty versatile and can produce outstanding food.
Pellet cookers allow you to work on your recipe because the 'cook' is a very well controlled variable.'
If you do get one I would get the biggest one that you have space for, the small ones seem to struggle a bit with keeping the temp stable and even across the cooker.
Also, put your own thermometer in the thing.
