Anyone else cook on an Orion? I finally broke down and bought one. So far, I've cooked 2 butts and 5 turkey breasts. An 8lb butt cooks in about 3.5 hours and a 7lb. breast cooks in 1.5.
I wouldn't call it "barbeque" but these things sure do put out some good, quick eats!
As a side note, I also own a Stump's Smoker and compete in the Georgia BBQ Association! The Stump's hasn't seen much action since I got the Orion!

I am intriugued. Does it smoke the meat well? Can you fill it with fish fillets?

I add a good handful of wood chips around the drip pan. You're not going to get the nice smoke ring you would on a smoker but you do get some smoke flavor. It is basically a convection oven. The meat is always super-juicy and tender.
I paid $139 at ACE. Sometimes you can find them cheaper.

Oh, and yes, I've seen recipes for fish but I haven't done any.
