Are you looking for a smoker?

The weber smokey mountain is hard to beat.

academy has some decent ones for that price point. I got my smoker that I use the box as a charcoal grill for 399

$99 barrel pits at HEB

If looking for a smoker I would choose the 22” weber Smokey mountain.

If looking for a grill I would get either a Weber Performer (comes with a side table) or the 26” weber grill.

You can smoke in the weber grills but the Weber Smokey Mountain is a little easier to control temps and can hold more meat when smoking.

If you get a weber grill, I would also look at getting the slow and sear from Adrenalin bbq as it is a great accessory for both grilling and smoking on a weber

The main things that I will be cooking are: burgers, jalopeno deer poppers, chicken, country ribs, pork chops, steaks, etc... But having the option with a side smoker box would nice. I do eventually want to get into smoking meats.

Based on this I would go with an Old Smokey.

For a charcoal grill, the Old Smokey is great. Will hold heat forever, portable, and come in many sizes. Can be had at Walmart or even HEB VERY reasonably. Burgers, steaks, chicken (indirect heat), etc.

For your budget, you can almost have an Old Smokey for grilling AND a Weber Smokey Mountain for smoking. From everything I've ready regarding the Smoky Mountain, they are very easy to regulate temp. That's really what it's all about, smoking-wise.

I'm currently using an old Smoky, but I need something with more surface area. Cooking for Easter, I had 2 batches of poppers and 2 batches of burgers... That took way too long. Which lead me to think it's time to get a better BBQ pit.

you r not bbqing you need a grill

I use my Weber Performer for everything. Have smoked a full packer brisket, wings, steaks, ribs, etc

In that case I would go with the barrel pit from HEB. Lots of room and perfect for grilling steaks, burgers, ribs, chicken, or poppers. I think they are like $99.
