Seasoned and ready for meat! I had some issues with flare up when using the stock wood tray. I think the wood chunks were on fire within the forst 10 minutes have it being in. After swapping out the pan and using a cast iron pan it seemed to work much better but still burned wood pretty fast...
So I got the garden in this past weekend and weaved a soaker hose through the rows near each plant. Can someone tell me what frequency amd duration should I be watering? I currently have the hose on a timer set to go for 45 mins every 6 hours. Would it be better to burry the hose a couple...
How do you fit the cast iron pan ontop of the stock wood tray with the water pan in there? I tried also tried this method yesterday when I sesoning mine but could barely fit any good wood chunks in the CI Pan and have it fit under the water pan...
Thanks for the info. I seemed to have gotten it under control after messing with the temperature a bit and using the cast iron skillet. I'll have to try the sand because the water burned out fast as well as the wood.
But the end result today is that I have a seasoned smoker the is ready for meat.

Im seasoning this smoker as I type this and I'm having a lot of flare ups. I loaded dry wood chunks into the wood tray and in about 8 minutes it was on fire. So I pulled the stock wood tray and placed a cast iron pan directly over the burner then put it on low but I'm still getting flare ups...
Haha, thanks for being honest. Those are the things I need to hear so it isn't a nightmare like you said. Being it's only feeding 2 people I can afford to space things out more and use less plants. I'd rather not have too much growing. Would it help to control the spread of the cucumber and...
So this will be my first year planting and growing my own produce. I already constructed a 4'x12'x12" above ground bed and I'll be filling it with compost/mushroom soil tomorrow. I need some help with ideas for laying out my plants without out getting carried away for my first time and becoming...
When using the smoker it looks like you only use wood chips/ chunks as long as smoking is needed. Like for ribs when you foil wrap them, but should I always keep smoke going if I have unwrapped food if I'm only cooking a butt? Or is there a set length of time to use smoke and then let it finish...
Thanks for the info and words of encourgment everyone. I'm going to try and get the smoker bought tonight and then get her up and running for the weekend or Monday since I'm off. I'll post up some pictures to share.
I've been pretty set on buying a smoker and getting into smoking meats and veggies since last year when I last visited San Antonio. I found this forum a couple weeks ago and have taken the eCourse and read through alot of the threads here to get me prepared to make delicious smoked food.
So I...
Where in the forum should I start posting my complete newb questions about getting started? I'm going to search for my questions first and also sign up for the eCourse but just in case I can't find the specifics I want I would like to make sure I'm asking in the right section. The question will...
