I've actually been lurking here for a while and it occurred to me that I have not introduced myself. I started out smoking with a Mecco bullet smoker that had an electric element in it. It was given to me by a friend that moved away. I really like what I was getting out of it and later contacted Aussie Grills and got the parts I needed to use charcoal with. Two years ago I moved up to the Brinkman smoker with the fire box on the side and have been at it with that ever since. I like using Apple wood along with Cherry and some of the other fruit woods that are in great abundance here. It would be nice to get my hands on some mesquite and other woods from the south too so that I can do some mixing and matching. The apple wood goes a long way here though. I smoke when ever I get the chance and enjoy it whole heartedly I like to use whole wood over chips myself. I have gleaned a great deal of useful knowledge from this site and am glad to be a part of it. Thank you all for everything that you share.
