I live in Mississippi, 40 years old, married and have 3 kids 2,3, and 15. I have always had a charcoal grill of some sort and wood of choice is always hickory. I recently built a concrete block smoker and have been having fun trying to cook with it. I recently did the unthinkable and ordered an electric smoker with a cold smoke attachment. My smoking friend and lifelong friend of mine will probably behead me for such an act. I hope to uses my electric for cold smoking cheese and smoking pork belly mainly, I could never stray away from the tried and true charcoal/wood combination I've grown to love. I've been reading some great threads on electric smoking and look forward to learning more and more.
