Hey Everyone,
I've been wanting a smoker for awhile and got a great deal yesterday for this model for $129 plus tax delivered:
I know I nee to season it the first time before using it. I'm curious, once it's ready to use, do any of you use a spray oil such as PAM to coat the racks/inside each time you use it to help in cleanup?
So this is technically going to be a bday present (Dec 16th) and I'm planning to also purchase the Maverick ET-73 and the Masterbuilt Cold Smoking Kit. I know the AMPS is highly regarded, but I like the idea of using wood and I have quite a bit to choose from...I did see a mod using a dimmer switch to tone down the wattage on the cold smoker kit and I think I might eventually do that...
I've been scouring this forum for the past few days in anticipation of the arrival. My plan is to smoke something for Xmas dinner as we are hosting. However, the plan is to try something easy that will compliment the dinner my wife is making.
Any recommendations on an "easy win" for a newbie on Xmas?
TIA for your advice!
Pete
