Welcome. Where in Saskatchewan? 
Depends on what you ant to do with it. If you're going to do brisket, pulled pork and so on, the OBS will be fine. If you're a ting to do sausage and hang it, get the 6 rack DBS.  More room. You also might want a temperature controller.

Southern Sask. Yes, will be doing sausage as well. Thanks for the info!

Welcome from SoDakota. Do the words "gonna put my boots and my hat back on" mean anything to you?

welcome aboard, both are  good units, i own the original for 8  years and have  lots of  good smokes  with it,,,  the benefit of the digital it  allows you to control the  temp and smoke ,  for the  price , get the  otginal and   build your  own  controller /  timer  for  cheaper and it  would be a  better controller

Thanks for the replies!

I went with the digital to start and was not overly happy with the temp control so I beefed it up with a 900w element and an auber.
Very happy now. You can always start like I did with a stock unit and add to it as you learn and grow your recipes

Thanks everyone, have a 6 rack on the way as I will be hanging sausage as well.

Do not hang your sausage. Use the trays and rotate every half hour.
