Lone Star Grillz 20x36 Pellet Smoker

“Never owned an LSG, know someone who has one (20x36 model) and saw it in action in person. Have read and watched a ton on the LSG . There are a few things I liked that I consider improvements to owning a Yoder that made me consider this my next (if you read my comments, unless Yoder comes with something new besides the CimarronS or Outlander (upgraded 1500S) then LSG will be MY option. Those things are 40lb hopper, Better Fireboard controller, Wood Chip rated auger, pellet dump, 6 probe capacity, center fire box removal for ash clean up option, without dissasembling the unit, pull out grates standard (that is a few 100$ to upgrade on my yoder the bottom grate only), etc, etc, etc to mention a few. The things I mentioned are improvements from my Yoder and are things I want to have so you can say those are things I would want to improve in the newer Yoders, but I don't hate my Yoder per se. Cold Smoking can't be done with unit on.. Cold Smoking is bellow 100° and none can give you that. Yoder goes 10° lower than the LSG at 150°.. only way to achieve true cold smoke would be doing a smoke tube or chip box inside the chamber. Jerky yes, as both are in temp range for jerky smoking as it sits between 150 and 180 .. true cold smoke with untit on, simply NOT possible.”
