Should you buy it?
The Char-Griller Competition Pro is a substantial traditional offset smoker aimed at enthusiastic outdoor cooks. Its 1,012-square-inch cooking area provides enough room for large cuts of meat and bigger gatherings, while the separate side firebox allows heat and smoke to travel through the main chamber for authentic low-and-slow cooking. Heavy-duty steel construction gives the smoker a suitably robust feel, and an adjustable side air vent works with the smokestack damper to control airflow and temperature. It can also handle conventional grilling when you don't want an all-day smoke. This is a hands-on charcoal and wood-fire cooker rather than a set-and-forget smoker, but that's exactly what experienced pitmasters may be looking for.
