You don't need luck, but enjoy the smoke.

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback! Tough decision now on what to smoke next.

It doesn't matter. You will have fun, it will taste great, and you will post Qview (I hope).

Looks good and I'll bet it even tasted better.  Just about any meat or vegetable can be smoked and come out fantastic.  I did a pork butt yesterday with some sweet potatoes (sorry - did not take photos - will do so next time).  Smoked sweet potatoes are a great side to a pulled pork meal.

Looks great will be doing some this weekend also.

I'll definitely post Qview Disco. Good or bad haha.

That sounds good Tuscon. I wouldn't mind one day just doing an all veggie smoke to try different kinds. Saw a post earlier with asparagus, so I have to try that now.
