    Hello Ladies and Gentlemen

    Decisions, decisions. I got Jeff's book in the mail today " a surprise gift from the wife" and I am already excited about its potential. I told the wife she had to choose what to do first but I have a feeling it will be up to me.

    Chuck roast

    I waited for you! It turned out pretty good, the potatoes had less smoke flavor than I had hoped but the chuckie didn't let me down.

    Hello Ladies and Gentlemen

    Thanks guys, I did get to break it in. I took a simple route and was happy with the results. Being it was a Christmas gift I also received some accessories from my daughter so I used what she had given me, so I broke it in with some Jack Daniels whiskey barrel chips and a brisket rub on a 3 ½lb...

    Hello Ladies and Gentlemen

    Another new guy here. My sweet wife gifted me a Masterbuilt 30" electric smoker for Christmas so I have been lurking in the dark getting tips and recipes for the last couple days so I figured I would join. I hope it will cook its first meat today. Hope everyone has a great new year!
