Oh yeah! I broke her in last summer. I'm thinking of converting her to gas tho. The fire dept. are jerks where i am. They tried to fine me 125 bux for burning in the summer, and burning with out a permit! I told the guy... it's a BBQ! Get lost!
I built this last summer. It's pretty hard to beat this smoker for the 75 bux I'm in to it for. Just thought i would share my design.

15k will be just fine where you live. If it was snowing and blowing, maybe not. That looks like a pretty good smoker. I'm setting up a good bro of mine with one almost the same. For 169, i don't think you can go wrong.
Good luck, bro.
