Well, here goes my first dip into my new hobby. Learning as I go. Acquired the el-cheapo ECB for free so testing out this morning. Going to need mods I'm already learning. Rubbed a small pork shoulder and whole chicken to test with and will throw sausage on later.
Initially, after seeing some videos I just threw chips directly on lava rocks. BAD IDEA. Burnt right up (even soaked). So I found these desktop organizers and made a half-ass chip box which is working for now.
Worked much better.
It's currently 47° outside and the smoker is maintaining 258° currently. I'll post more updates later. Pics don't show the smoke as well as video but the smoke is rolling thick!
Open to any advice or tips. By the way, I'm Jason, thanks for a great forum. Very informative.
