I've only ever seen a couple of saffires in person, BGE's are the most popular here...but they're every bit equal a grill/smoker the BGE's are.
They are both very well built, can’t go wrong either way.I've only ever seen a couple of saffires in person, BGE's are the most popular here...but they're every bit equal a grill/smoker the BGE's are.
It certainly looks like you get good use from it! Would you do an 8+ hour cook on yours? How many times would you have to change coals on a long cook like that? The Smoke thermometer I have can control a small fan to regulate coal temp Could you use that on your setup?
I hadn't really considered an Egg, but there's on local on marketplace pretty cheap.
Local Marketplace cheap May be your answer... if you have to or are buying new I’d consider the Weber Smokey Mountain as Jason said. Have done lots of reading and YouTube watching and they seem incredibly versatile. You can add a Billows fan right to the vent with metal tape covering 3 of the 4 holes. Check marketplace for those too. Seems like 18.5” versions come up frequently as people look to upgrade to larger 22.5” ones.
Yeah, this one is pretty tempting. It's the regular large size for $450 with the tables on either side.
Looks good, I do mine a little different. But if the end result is good, then that’s all that matters.Round 2 was a success.
grill was at 600, stone was at 350.
dropped the pizza in and cooked for 15min.
came out perfect. Zero burn on the bottom.

I live about 2 miles from a place called Dizzy Pig. It's a BBQ supply place that makes their own seasonings. 5 and 10k silos of salts sugars peppers etc. The on on their turkey is called Peruvianish. It's flat out fantastic. The turkey breast were skin on and a touch fatty for turkey. The grill/smoker is lump charcoal and I cooked these at 375 with a few chunks of hickory then pulled them to rest when they hit 165. The skin was hands down the best poultry skin I've had in years. Fat totally rendered, skin crispy with just a little chew. The best was great too but that skin was just one of this AAAAAHHHH!! moments.Might have to cough up the marinade/season trick ya got going on there, young man...looks pretty happening.

Mine cook for 2 minutes at the most.
I've bought several Dizzy Pig seasonings, never thought of giving the Peruvian-ish a try. Gonna order a couple of shaker bottles later today...ready to give it a go.I live about 2 miles from a place called Dizzy Pig.
