Hi,
My name is Jed and thank you for letting me join this site. I previously owned a Traeger Texas smoker and I'm looking to upgrade. I have been focused on the Yoder YS640 and FEC PG500 for a while, but now I'm really thinking of splurging on a MAK 2 Star or maybe Memphis Advantage Plus. I will be smoking and grilling on the one I choose frequently. I've decided to stick with a pellet smoker because my wife had also started cooking on my Traeger too. The MAK 2 is at the top of my budget so I probably wouldn't get any accessories starting out except a cover. Is the cover offered with it heavy duty enough that I can leave my MAK on the patio instead of storing in the garage? Are there any accessories that have to be added when purchasing that can't be added later? I have been doing research for a while now and I'm about to drive myself crazy. Any advice and suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks
