    What wood to use for building a raised outdoor container bed

    Do not under any circumstances use railroad ties! hey are treated with creosote and other nasty stuff. After a few years, they will contaminate the soil rendering it unplantable. Last year, after an exhaustive search, I determined that PT wood sold at HD would not hurt the plants or my family.

    New Member wanting new smoker

    I have the MES 40" and absolutely love it. If you have a way to keep precipitation off it I would buy the MES. To that, I would add Todd Johnson's A-MAZE-N smoker to it. Otherwise, I would go with the 18.5" Weber GSM. Either way, you will be able to produce great Q.
