seasoned the smoker this AM....decided to start "easy" to get going
that was way edible....the jalapenos were darn right good....the fatty wasn't half bad, either (hot & sweet sausage rolled with peppers/onions/shrooms/provolone)
i need: different wood than just hickory....tastes good, but a little strong
a better thermometer, to regulate internal temp. better.....cooked the sausage quick.....which was ok, but i wouldn't want ribs to go that quick; i think i hit 170 in an hour and a half
to put foil over my wood chunks to cut down flare ups
all in all, a good first effort.....but i definitely have some learning to do
