    First batch of ribs came out very good.  (I'll save the term "great" for when I have a few years of smokin under my belt.)  I was concerned that the extra holes in the bottom would reduce the moisture, and dry the meat out a little.  I did smoke with a small aluminum foil pan of water on the...

    Final Assembly completed as the Auber controls hit the mailbox. Here is the back side showing the holes for cable routing.  The hole right in back of the Auber PID will prevent the device from being pulled off the shelf in case somebody pulls on the AC cords.  It also makes for a clean...

    I bought the Master BBQ M3500.  The product description stated that it comes with 3 racks, but it had 4 regular racks and one seafood rack.  Pleasantly surprised. Smokinjoe

    Here is the work in progress. Smoker mounted on a 2' x 2' 3/4" ply handy panel from Home depot. Plywood mounted to a Sears tool stand. The plywood was given 3 coats of spar varnish, since the smoker will be outdoors on a protected patio during Iowa winters.  Another reason I wanted an...
