Named for its upright bullet shape, this peculiar smoker build is known for a few distinct advantages: they’re dead simple to use, reliably manage a cooking range of 225–250 degrees Fahrenheit, built lighter and overall smaller (here’s some napkin math: lighter times smaller equals more portable), and generally much easier to clean. You can also expect them to guarantee moist results in all but the most negligent of hands. Moisture is particular important during long smokes, contributing to their recent but consistent popularity boom.
