Hello to all the backyard gourmets and the professional smoke masters out there.  My name is Joe, I live in Salt Lake City, UT and I just got married.  My groomsmen decided they had enjoyed enough of my BBQ, so they bought me a smoker.  Brinkmann Trailmaster professional series and I am now learning how to cook all over again.  While I do consider myself an old hand at grilling, I am wholly green when it comes to smoking.  So now I will prostate myself before the horde, and humbly accept tips, tricks and secrets to mastering the art of smoking.

So, first things first, I need to season my grill.  I have ideas about how to proceed (similar to a dutch oven?) but any special tips would be welcomed.

Give me the big info people!

Oh and, thanks for welcoming me to the community.

Spray or rub the cooking chamber with cooking oil, Pam works I use a combo of cooking oil and bacon grease in a spray bottle Bring up the temp to 300 or higher and let the oil back on.
