Hello,
My name is Larry. My wife (of 37 years) bought me a Brinkmann Smoke 'N Pit last year. I am having a blast with it. I would like to learn more and become proficient at using it. I also have a six burner gas grill to play with.
In the past year, I have had some successes and some failures - though still edible.
I am just learning, so I am looking for all the information I can get to make my smoker cooking something that my family waits for.
My greatest challenge to date has been in maintaining cooking temperature. I am going to try a charcoal basket next - Minion Method. The other thing that makes me crazy is making sure the meat is properly cooked so I do not poison my family and friends.
I am sold on Jeff's rub, and use it exclusively.
I have just joined the forum area, so I am anxious to chat and meet the people who enjoy smoking as much as I am.
Maybe some of you all already know this, but one of the large STERNO cans works great to start the charcoal chimney. Careful not too let it go to long under the chimney. I am considering a small propane burner to do that.
Better stop for now.
Larry
