Offset barrel smoker with lump hardwood charcoal and your soaked chips of choice. Also get yourself (2) chimney starters as well. $150 bucks at Lowe's. Save the other $350 for fishing and / or buying tasty meats for said smoking. There is a reason why the competition guys all use lump hardwood charcoal. wink

Or go electric if you are lazy.
