Hello from Everett, WA
« on: June 30, 2018, 06:54:06 PM »
Hi, my name is Mike. I've been smoke-free for 2 years.
Ha! Just kidding! I've been seriously smoking since about 2010. Started out with a Char Broil American horizontal. Currently, I own a Green Mountain Grill Daniel Boone, 22" Weber Performer, Masterbuilt 30" electric, and another electric that I converted from a 6'-6" Viking commercial refrigerator.
I bought a Smokin' It #1 last weekend, and am really stoked to try it out. Unfortunately, we are having a typical Seattle-area summer here, and it's raining right now.  :( 
Hopefully soon!

Welcome from the Hudson Valley. One great thing about these units is that you don't have to baby them as you are smoking something, so as long as it is under some sort of cover, so water doesn't get into the controls, don't let weather bother you. Enjoy!

Thanks, everyone!  I bought my #1 second hand, and from the looks of things it is an early model. No side handles or rack in the back to wrap the cord. It was very clean and well cared for, though. Only two racks, but it did come with the Sasha flavor savor.
I'm finally going to try it out tomorrow on a 4.5 lb chuckie. I have a chunk of pecan that is 3.8 oz all ready to go.

Not true, my #3 Analog has been sitting out on the deck uncovered in all weather since June of 2013. It has not only survived but has smoked in down pours and Michigan winters.
