It’s probably not for everyone, hell I bought a traeger and hate it, tastes bland or artificial to me compared to a stick burner, very convenient tho.

The thing I like with the anova is it’s pretty hard to overlook or dry out anything, temps take awhile to tweak to your liking but when dialed it’s cooked to perfection.

I smoke first with just enough heat to put a bark on, some guys do it the opposite way, both work. Give it a fair run.

I’m no competition bbq guy, but have had a lot of competition bbq, appearance might be better than with the anova, but the taste never is.. check out the “souse vide everything “ YouTube channel.
