Hey All,

My name is Eric. I originally went to school to get a computer science degree. After working for a bit I decided to go back to medical school. Next year I will be attending University of Rochester Medical School starting in August. My fiance (Wife in June) just bought our first house. I have wanted to smoke for a while and since I have the space I plan to start. I have no equipment so far, but am familiar with cooking, baking, and beer brewing.... That's about it...

-Eric

Congrats on starting med school.

Your time will be precious. Consider a MES or other electric for your smoker.

Good luck with both.

Thanks for the welcome all. I am thinking of a MES w/ a Smoke Daddy.... I like the idea of electric, but also want to be able to do cold smoke.

Welcome aboard and you thinking in the right direction. I was lucky when I bought my MES. I had no idea what I was buying, it was I wanted to spend. As it turns out it is simple enough I can use it. I have mentioned before it is like smoking with training wheels.
