Thanks for the warm welcomes. I have been reading previous post, recipes, cooking techniques, etc. from most of you. I checked my tracking # and I am expecting delivery Wednesday. Very quick delivery for a large item considering I ordered Saturday night.
I am planning on seasoning the smoker Thursday and getting meat ready for the first cook starting Friday night. I am going to hit it heavy and break this thing in right! Planning on starting a butt Friday night with apple and pecan wood, 3 slabs of BB ribs going on Sat morning, beans and corn going in a few hours before serving a pregame Alabama-FSU dinner. It may be a challenge trying to get everything ready to serve near the same time while adjusting to the cooking times, but I can't wait to get started.
I am coming from charcoal and wood smoking, so the hardest thing for me is going to be leaving it alone and letting it do its magic!
