    Decided on the old country Pecos smoker from Academy. Now what!?

    Well I have the tuning plates in hand. I may as well give them a whirl. Is using the cooking grate on the firebox side for the coal bed, not too high off the bottom of the box? Seems to me like the fire would be right level with the baffle hole. Not sure if that is the goal. I do understand that...

I know the rig will need to be seasoned and taken care of so what would you guys suggest doing or using to properly get this thing ready to roll. What kind of oil, how often afterwards,how can I tell it's ready, and any other...

    Think beef ribs would be fine to start off with? Only reason I want to do a brisket is because I have been looking up EVERYTHING on how to do a brisket and I think I have read enough to at least make a half decent one haha

    NEW FROM NORTH TEXAS

    Got an old country Pecos smoker from Academy. I think that's the name of it. I thought it would be a decent starter for me. Only thing I've ever smoked was a cigarette so I'm giving this a whirl since I'm almost 30 and need to start bringing something to the table for family get togethers haha.
