I just bought my first smoker this past weekend and absolutely love it. I bought an electric Kenmore smoker from Sears. I bought an electric smoker because I didn't want to get discouraged by burning up meat by trial and error. I feel like once I get comfortable with cooking with it, I will move up to a "real" smoker.

Anyway, I look forward to getting to know you guys and honing my skills with all of your posts I have found on here.

Thanks,

Joey

Welcome GLX, Hope you enjoyit here. Lots of good people here so yuo will be getting confident very soon! But! I must warn you, once bitten by the Smoke Bug, you can't stop. The Wife starts complaining about the other woman. You start staying out all night, you smell all the time(but YOU will learn to LOVE the aroma), and neighbors drop in and salivate all over your yard.LOL!
