Hello to all and happy memorial day weekend!
I bought a Bradley smoker on Monday, and have been on this forum looking for info ever since! My wife smoked a meatloaf using the info she found here on Tuesday and I can honestly say that we are hooked! I look forward to being a part of this community :yahoo:

Thanks for all the welcomes! I signed up for the ecourse yesterday and am already going through it. And I agree,the only way to eat meatloaf is smoked! The wife smoked salmon a couple days ago, but left it a little too long so it was a little dry, but it was a good learning experience. Last night we smoked cheese sausage dogs and even they were amazing! I think it's safe to say that we are definitely hooked! The Bradley is nice with the self feed system. I ran it on high last night, and it only reached 225 degrees. It's supposed to reach 320, and after reading on here I see I need to get a good thermometer to check the accuracy of the built in thermometer. This is one of the best forums I have seen in a long time :)
