If you’re ready to invest in something that can feed an army, look for a Pit Boss vertical smoker. If you only rarely smoke food, the most affordable Pit Boss models are also great choices. Masterbuilt makes a decent range of reasonably priced, effective outdoor culinary equipment, and that holds true with its smokers.

where some exclusions may apply. There are two versions of the Blue Blazing analog electric smoker, the 2 Series and the 3 Series. Once you’ve placed your meat in the smoker, you’ll need to set the temperature. The ideal temperature for smoking meats is between 225 and 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
It has a compact design, which makes it easy to transport and store. The interior is heated by a 1650-Watt heating element, appropriate for many different kinds of food. Just fill the water pan, place or prime pellets in the bowl and wait till fire. Once the startup is done there is nothing else to do but let it smoke. If you go into this knowing that you probably won’t be able to hit/maintain the top advertised temperatures then, at these price points, I think you could have fun with one of these.
If the unit is not vented, the temperature inside the unit will rise and the unit will enter a pre-heat cycle. To ensure that the meat is cooked evenly and has a delicious smoky flavor, smoke slowly. It is important to refer to the manual of your specific model for accurate temperature information and cooking instructions.
I think the smoker control board would be more user-friendly if it was located at the top of the smoker instead of the bottom, It would be easier to see and use. Once I managed to get everything assembled I could tell that the smoker was built well and is very easy to roll pit boss pellets around. Personally I would not encourage someone to purchase a product that 30% of owners didn’t like and less than 60% gave it a 5 star rating.
