My new Oklahoma Joe highland is being delivered tomorrow. The only other smokers I have ever used has been first, a vertical propane, wood chip smoker and then a pellet smoker , like a treager. I am afraid of the hot spots and fire management. My pellet smoker was pretty much set and forget, I am afraid that I will not be able to maintain a constant temperature on the OK. I bought a rack of St. Louis style ribs the other day On sale for just $10. I could't pass that up. So I am just going to jump right in and give that a try to see how I do.If I don't try I won't fail and if I don't fail I don't learn. Pray for me please.
