I have a smoker in my garage. And while I don't feel as if it is mine, I believe I was told that it is. However, it's the type of smoker that requires the constant tending, that I am not generally willing to do (I have done things that are long cooking and need monitoring, but that usually involves me napping or reading on the couch). In doing research I have been coming up with a smokers to kind of start me off, and Traeger certainly makes the list, but they're on the expensive side. One of their reps were at the local(ish) CostCo and made a pretty convincing argument, but the cost...the cost is challenging. While trying to reduce debt and continue to live, it's always a balance to make high cost decisions, especially on something that I could end up not really using. I guess the same could be said of the Sous Vide thing. That's not near as expensive though. That being said, I'm still thinking about both.
