I got a Masterbuilt 900 gravity feed charcoal grill two years ago from Costco that has the pizza oven attachment. It is extremely versatile to switch from grilling to smoking and will run at 700°. You can run a blend of charcoal and wood in it. And i have used it in a couple small town rib competitions the last 2 years and placed 4th out of 25 or so both years.
hybrid.
My buddy has one. He seems to like it. Can it do a whole brisket cook and how well does it regulate temperature. If I didn’t already have the recteq with the 40 pound hopper I would get this new one.

I haven’t done brisket on it yet, but have done multiple pork butts (not the same but a longer cook still) and it regulates temps really well. It is nearly a set it and forget it type cook but I would imagine with the length of cook a brisket takes you would want to add charcoal during the cook. Reddit has a dedicated forum for Masterbuilts that has a lot of good information lMy buddy has one. He seems to like it. Can it do a whole brisket cook and how well does it regulate temperature.

DualFire 1200
Introducing the recteq DualFire, the only all wood fired, dual chamber grill. With two cooking chambers, one with direct heat and one with indirect, you have endless recipe options, no shortage of cooking space, and temperature ranges from 180ºF to 700ºF. Like every recteq, heavy-duty...
Nice! Traegers are pretty simple to use you should be rolling in no time.
Shirt learning curve, start with some easier things, pulled pork for example. You’ll love it!
Pretty simple. I went from a dad that couldn't do grilled cheese correctly to a grilling legend in my family.
If you can’t operate a pellet smoker I have my doubts you’d be able to even get on this site. Very easy. Can’t go wrong with 3-2-1 ribs. Rub on the ribs overnight. 220 on the pellet grill. 3 hours uncovered. 2 hours wrapped in foil, 1 hour uncover. I usually put on some bbq sauce at the 1 hour step. I think I use hickory pellets for pork. A good accessory is the disposable contains in the grease bucket. A lot of people use smoke tubes for a more smoky flavor on pallet grills but I’ve never used one.
Make sure you vacuum out bottom periodically. The cooking part is easy.
I also smoked a Salmon. Covered it with brown sugar, Kinder's Buttery Steakhouse spices, with shots of lemon and lime juice. Smoked for 4hrs, hit it with apple juice when needed. Served with Saltine crackers and more lemon or lime juice. Kids wolfed it down in seconds.
Salmon might be the best thing I've smoked. What smoker do you have? My kamado is too difficult to keep below 200 so I can maybe only get an hour on before it starts to over cook if I throw them on when the smoke turns blue and before it's preheated.
Large Weber kettle. Nothing else needed and it actually tastes like wood smoke unlike the pellet grills. Most have no idea what real bbq is.
