Hello from East Aurora, NY

Hello everyone,

New member here.  I just purchased a Master Forge smoker and I am looking forward to using propane for heat.  I have had some very small experience with a old vertical Brinkam charcoal smoker but I found it cumbersome to use, seems the temp fluctuations for me where to wild with the charcoal and wood chunks so I figured propane would be easier to manage.  For long smokes it was a chore using the charcoal Brinkman smoker ;)

I also used a Big Chief electric smoker in the past for Fish, and only fish. I found the temps on the Big Chief where too low for me for doing bigger cuts of meat.  It worked perfect for salmon.

I have made fresh and smoked Polish sausage and even some beef summer sausage before.

Now that I have my propane smoker I am looking forward to getting back into smoking more often :)

 to SMF!!! We're happy you joined us! You have come to the right place, there are a lot of great people here who love to share their experience and talents. Hang in there with that smoker, the more you use it the better it will perform. You just need to learn it's quirks and how to make it work for you. I struggled with mine in the beginning and now I love it! You can use the search bar at the top to find almost anything you want to know and there's a lot in here about propane smokers. Do yourself a favor and do some reading, a little time spent here will save you a lot of time outside getting frustrated!
