Hello all,
I've been reading the forum for a couple months and I really enjoy it. I decided to join because it seems that everybody here can offer a wealth of information and I occasionally have questions that need answers. I've been smoking meats for a few years, mostly with electric smokers. Prior to that, I was (and still am) just a huge fan of the old grill. My last smoke was a beer can chicken, which came out great. I'll be firing up the smoker this week for a small (3 lb.) brisket, but I may try to throw some accompaniments in there too. Look forward to being a part of this great resource!

Chris

Welcome Meatball, glad you joined up. Good luck with your brisket. Why not throw a fattie in?
Can't wait for some Qview and any advice you are able to offer to others.

Welcome to the forum. Seems kind of a waste just doing a 3# brisket, doesn't it?

Throw on a couple fatties and some Dutch's awesome beans.

thanks guys...Yeah, I agree, a 3 lb brisket does seem like a waste of wood, so I'll throw something in with it - some fixins or maybe a fattie (would be my first fattie). I got the brisket on sale though and bought the biggest one they had (probably why they were on sale).
