Just purchased a Yoder YS640, will be delivered on Friday afternoon. So I have a first cook to plan after the burn in. Not new to smokers or grilling, have had a BGE Large for 20 years along with a Weber Kettle - but this is the first pellet smoker I have owned or used.
Going for simple the first time, thinking smoked chicken thighs - salt and pepper seasoning. When doing this on my BGE I would get temp to about 350, and would usually take about 45 minutes with flip about halfway through.
Will this work ok on a smoker like the 640? I do not have the 2 piece diffuser or Grillgrates yet - just the standard heat diffuser and the grill racks. Thinking about using hickory pellets too. It does have 2 levels, bottom and top rack...
I have Amazon sending me a A-Maz-N smoke tube which will be on hand by Friday - will I need the additional smoke? Or should I save that for later till I know what I am doing
