    Any other Brine?

    Hello All, Because of doctor's orders, I have to cut salt. Does anyone know of a different brine other than using kosher salt? I have had real good luck with water and kosher salt but I have to change.

    Buying First Smoker

    Well, I bought a New Braunsfel from acadedmy for about $140.00. I have had good luck with it so far. I am adding a WSM 22.5 to my collection. Main think to think about is that if it feels like a cheap smoker, it probably is. You could always make your own, look under UDS for tips and how to's
