First since this is Roll Call, I would like to say Howdee. Glad you dropped by. There is a vast expanse of knowledge here just waiting for you to call upon it.
AMPs is a fine tool, its a aux smoke generator, pellet type. It has the advantage of using pellets so you can also experience the diffrent woods which you might get a chance to find as chips.
But for my 2 cents a remote probe would be the first and formost as to needed. It allows you to smoke without worry about safety for yourself and others. AND even when you mess up, and it will happen, its still a good smoke. It keeps you from getting dry meat, or rare meat, so even if you chose unwisely on you flavor modifiers the meat is still edible.
But you'll quickly realize all that. What you need is experience so you can start building your knowledge. The more you smoke the better it gets. Plus its a good excuse to get to do it more often.
Loads of knowledge, good folks here, and more ideas than you'll ever get a chance to try...LOL.
Just vrememberthere is no one perfect way, everyone has their own way and think ours is the best. Try it, see what you think, what I think may not be how you think.
Nice Meeting you and look foward to seeing your accomplishments using Q-View.
