I put my offset smoker up against a pellet grill at a cookoff last Saturday

Ran a brisket on my cheap offset next to my buddy's $3000 pellet smoker. His bark was nonexistent and my fire management looked like a disaster, but mine took first place by a wide margin.

Pellet grills are basically outdoor ovens that happen to drop a few smoke pellets in. That competition proved the judges want real bark and smoke, not just a tender piece of meat.

Man I saw a YouTube video saying pellet grills just can't match the smoke flavor you get from real wood.
