Jerry, personally I'd consider the Weber Smokey Mountain -- WSM -- (
http://www.virtualweberbullet.com/ ) coupled with the BBQ Guru
(http://www.thebbqguru.com/). That combination will give you absolute
temperature control and you won't be stuck with "pucks"; you'll be able to
use any fuel you want to use: wood chunks, wood chips, briquettes, lump
charcoal, burnt-down wood coals. The BBQ Guru is wonderful. I recently
acquired one for my Kamado, and it made a good pit even more "set-N-forget"
than it already was. The BBQ Guru has a setup for the WSM.

You could also look at the home owner Cookhack line
(http://store.cookshack.com/c-64-cookshack.aspx). Again, you are not
dependent on proprietary wood "pucks". They are heavier and more expensive,
but are just as easy to use as a Bradley.
