If you have a normal sized family, I think a BGE or any ceramic smoker would work best. I have a large and it will still fit three big Costco racks of ribs (albeit, I do have to cut them in half; also, try to ignore the bbq sauce in the pic, kids and wife like it) or really anything else you're looking to cook. I almost never use my offset anymore because there is really no difference in flavor and the egg is much easier to use.

BIG GREEN EGG- I have had mine for 12 years

I have never seen an egg with the lower vent that wasn't below the handle to open (or front).

When my dad gave it to me I disassembled it and repainted all the steel and replaced the seal. It's likely that I reassembled it with the lower vent in the back.

Depends on what you're trying to do, what you like to do, and how much time you have to do it. My favorite is a big offset stick burner, but it takes time and a love of doing that crap. It's not for me, but a lot of people would rather plug something into the wall and set the timer and burn pellets. I also have a Primo XL that's awesome for when I don't have that much time to mess with offset, or want the temp to stay consistent for several hours at a time without worrying about checking on it.
