BBQ is a funny thing, it's like wine; I know what I like and I like what I know. E&J in Berzerkely is my standard because of 2 things: the sauce, thinner and runnier, easily sopped up by potato salad and bread; 2nd the oven, old brick smoker that I've seen the fat leaking out between the bricks.
for me it's all about the smoker/oven, a well seasoned smoker does more for the meat than rubs or sauce.

If you watch his home BBQ videos he doesn't use any crazy equipment or ingredients

His technique is impeccable even though he only uses his simple salt and pepper for most of his cooks. His ability to trim, control temps, and when to pull the meat off is probably 2nd to none. But even he only charges $20 per pound. Its something I’d like to try once in my life, however I dont think I could eat it on a weekly basis. Hence the reason for cooking BBQ on my own.

Trim the meat?
When it comes to temperature control, isn't that the mainstay of the modern pellet grills? Controlled, continuous temperature and smoke at the push of a button?
I'm not trying to dispute his skills, but trimming meat doesn't seem that exotic, and computer control is taking some of the feel away from it with similar results.
I used to smoke some things, mostly chickens (smoke chickens enchiladas are McYummy). It was a cheap water smoker, as much frustrating as successful.
If it wasn't just two of us, I'd get a pellet stove and keep it super easy. Just hard to justify that much meat in the house all at once for two.

I thought trimming was easy too until I did my first brisket. Then I learned proper trimming is essential to the way a brisket cooks in the smoker. Thats his forte, and I think brisket is the hardest thing to make since it takes the longest.

Heyy i also have an akorn, the thing is great for the money
I'm quite sure the bbq is great. But for me, waiting in line over an hour for food is a total deal breaker for me. I won't do it.
There's a fried chicken popup here that I've heard is outstanding. But the waits are like 2+ hours. I thought I left that shit back in the bay area.

I can make fried chicken as good as most restaurants. It's incredibly easy. Frying food is dangerous but very very easy.
2 hour wait? I could throw some ribs on and hang out for 5 hours and time it perfectly for when I'm ready.
I've not had memorable BBQ in the Bay Area except one decent place in Oakland.
