You could always start catering for family/friends personal events.

I want a G2 Chubby but may just go smaller if I can ever convince my wife to let me take up more space in the garage.

Well yesterday that chicken cook was at 325 and I saw my fire dying down. I was done and instead of letting a good fire go to waste I opened the doors for bit to let the excess heat out then managed to get it down to 170 degrees on the guru with just a few coals still burning. I put a piece of wood on and smoked this jerky for a few hours, I like to finish in the dehydrator. 

I started it it on the dehydrator last night but knew I wouldn't stay up. Pulled it into the fridge and started it back up today turned out great. Started with 4 lbs of London broil, hand sliced for the first time left me with thicker pieces than I like but al is good. My kids love this.

one question I saw smoldering wood smoke was not good... But if I'm going low temp how does the wood not smolder? I did play with the fire box a bit as my fire was dying and left the door open for a burst of air to ramp it up a bit. My jerky taste fine just came across that smoldering issue today reading online.

I've been looking around for a Deep South since I read this thread. Trying to concoct some level of justification for the wife on this. This one might be tricky.

Life is not based on need alone.  I am about to pull a death-challenging maneuver and get a stick-burner.  Sometimes ya just gotta go with it.  But my obit is current if this buy goes too far south.

I've pondered getting into some small catering and have looked at these types of units. I've talked myself out many times though.

I have a Chubby G2 that I compete with at competition along with a Weber or every now and then an Egg of mine. Backwoods are Solid Versatile Cookers. One of my best purchases ever, no complaints what so ever!
