    Any recommended injector?

    I've taken a look on Amazon (uk guy here) and there just seems to be the cheap nasty ones :/ think I'll just have to take the plunge on a decently reviewed one and hope. Two of the semi decent ones are the stainless steel type that you describe :(

    Buying first smoker - any hints?

    Hello folks, I've read the starter smoking guide, and it recommends seasoning the smoker first, a couple of dry runs followed by a run with some fatty off-cuts to get it started.

    Buying first smoker - any hints?

    Yeah the UK can be great for some things and crap for others! Will try out a shoulder of pork on Monday/Tuesday and reply back with the result. Fingers crossed it should be fine - I work shifts so I have many days off where I can just sit in the garden for 14 hours and relax :p

I have bought the 47cm (18.5...
