Welcome to SMF!

A good place to start is with the free 5 day e-course.

Lot's of good info in it.

Thank's a bunch!

I mean I've got apple and cherry smoking chips and a fire starter also a pretty decent cover, I paid 100 for the smoker itself, but I've noticed gaps in between the fire box and hinge for lids, so I have invest into some high heat seal just to go around, I suppose its a problem with a cheaper smoker but is it easy enough to modify to get a decent smoke going?? I hope so...
