Another newbie from MI
« on: June 20, 2015, 09:03:27 AM »
Just got my number 1. Very little experience smoking. Years grilling and trying to smoke with the little cast iron box on my gas grill.  Looking forward to finally doing some real smoking.

Congrats , on your new purchase ( one ) and like myself when I purchased my new smoker I had very little experience other then a smoker box on the Barbie ( gas ) and with all the helpful information provided here from everyone on this forum you should not have any problems at all considering your smoke more or less over a period of time will be a set it and forget it experience . Where in Mich is your location ?

Welcome from Delaware, Punk!   Yes, I used to use the little wood box on the gasser, but you will find that the SI #1 will produce a much better smoked product!   While waiting for the #1 to arrive (which won't take long), take some time to look through the forum -- lots of good recipes and methods to produce great Q!  Cheers

Welcome from Texas! Lots of info about your new buddy here to help you get going. Season that bad boy up then throw a hunk of meat in it and get ready to enjoy what we like to call EZQ. You'll see what I mean.

Thanks all. Ribs turned out good. The meat wasn't the best and used too little wood for my taste and could have cooked a bit longer. But for first time it was really good.

How much wood did use and how long did you smoke the ribs ?  Go to............... guide to smoking times , temps and woods ......which has a great chart to use for a guide that I find is very helpful in the recipes section of this forum .
