Greetings from Vikings territory!

[dveldh]

That would be Minnesota's West Coast in Moorhead, right next to Fargo, ND. Started last year with an ECB for a couple runs, decided I'd like to try a sideburner and found one on closeout from Wal-Mart. Did a few runs at ribs, tenderloins and chickens and decided it was too small, but the approach I liked. Picked up a Char-Griller Pro on sale at Menards and have been making mods based on what I've been reading from the more experienced hands here. My girlfriend has been questioning my getting into this (but she still loved the chicken!). I'm thinking this is something to help me with one of my worst bad habit--impatience. This weekend will be the seasoning and first run on the Char-Griller, so hopefully the spare ribs survive.

Smoking will definately teach you some patience-You can't be in a hurry with a 10 lb pork butt on the smoker. Welcome to SMF and by the way--GO BEARS!!

Welcome to SMF glad you joined us. Congrats on the new smoker. You will find lots of info here as well as some awesome recipes. Seems our other halves always think we're nuts until they start tasting all the great stuff we smoke. Of course it takes even longer for them to get used to us taking Qview

Have fun and happy smoking
