No the grill is NOT happy but I used her yesterday!  She is going to have to get used to the back seat for a bit I am additced to smoking after the meal I just had!

 I say for my first smoke it turned out good...    it was 2.75 hrs at 210*F-230*F   Its getting colder here now so it was getting difficult to keep the temp the same the whole time.... I also was only using the temp on the smoker itself.  This morning I ordered a Maverick ET-7 I will have it for the weekend when I plan to smoke a fatty or some chickens.

Just about everything smokes at 225-250 except poultry and maybe fresh stuffed sausage.
