I have a new PK300 and an Akorn. I have previously owned a Weber 22”, a Masterbuilt 560, and a Pit Barrel Cooker.

Excellent choice. Ever thought about the 22”? You have the upgraded door etc?

I had the 22” when I lived in Texas, moved to New York for a while and gave to a friend. He got me the 18” once I had a yard again since the shipping would cost so much. It was nice for the rare occasion that I wanted to cook a full rack of ribs or like multiple turkeys. For a single butt or brisket though it used so much coal even with the ring method. No upgraded door, I just buy a bunch of ends and pieces, put em in my cast iron, crank the vents all the way open and coat the inside with fresh grease while I’m seasoning my pan.

Sounds like a great setup.
