These were a fad once, I still like them as the bird stays moist, any new options?

I have to admit - we use 1 of our 2 Traeger's very often.  I do still however insist that a Tri-Tip must be done on a charcoal BBQ.  It's just not the same on a smoker!!

My wife uses the smokers for EVERYTHING. She does cookies, pies, cobblers, casserole's,  etc.  It's pretty bad (LOL), but good!

Spathcocked turkey is the best - breaking that bone though literally took wrapping it, putting it on the floor and stepping on it (ok, more like stomping)!
