I’ve smoked tri tip  hot links ribs and bologna so far and it all turned out pretty good for my first couple times using and playing with the unit so to speak and tweaking it  the only issue for me was setting the timer and the cooking temperature went back and read directions like I should have in the first place and everything was fine I’ve always have been partial to charcoal and wood smoking 
And thought electric couldn’t compare well I take that back now it’s just as good salmon is next I do recommend if you were thinking about buying one  this is a decent one and I put it together in about 45min  so great unit
