Thanks to the Forum - Sing it with me
« on: July 04, 2018, 05:53:09 PM »
I have been a charcoal guy for 30+ years.  And my smoker has been a WSM.  Old Sarge, DM, and SuperDave suggested I move up to the 3D and politely told me to stop whining about the extra price - and the Wifi upgrade that took me to the scary $1000 price point.  In reality, they didn't tell me to stop whining, but patiently pointed out the value.  I m already saying it was the best investment i ever made.

Without the forum, and so many post/pics, you could not have made me believe that an electric smoker could deliver the smoke and taste that these boxes do.  As a new owner, I am a believer now.  I literally have spent many hours reading because the forum members have shared your experiences, both good and bad.  It's like a lifetime of smoking hard knocks in one place.

I have this brisky in the cooler right now.

17 hours to get to 195/205.
Upped to 240 the last hour to get it to temp a little faster to allow time to rest.

It is so moist it would fall apart if I held it with one hand.  Without this forum, I do not think that would have been such a success.  I am one spoiled man now.

So a big shout out to all forum participants.  And thanks to a great company that provides this excellent community!

Let's get those "+1" s going to express our thanks.

Atta boy Terry, good to hear another success story from a happy camper (smoker). Brisket looks great.  8)
