Perfect Draft blower system with thermocouple probe was invaluable in maintaining the cooker temps. Money well spent because it takes a lot off my mind. Set it and forget it, just load wood as needed. Adjusting the flues to balance the heat and smoke flow will be an ongoing learning " the machine" characteristics along with wood choices.

Life in the mountains is Cooking, a good fire pit, home made Sangria and chickens running about. Neighbors brought all sorts of stuff from the poppers to cakes, cobbler, loaded tater salad, beans, and the Sangria. The only item off the smoker with no leftovers was smoked Mac n cheese. I did make a bunch of St. Louis style ribs, more than needed really with all the other food.

Pinchos before. Never got an after picture. Pork tenderloin and bacon marinated in olive oil, fresh garlic, one packet of Sazon, Ras Al Hanout spice and a bit of lemon juice overnight. Smoked and served with fresh lemon wedges to squeeze the juice on them before eating them. Nice contrast in flavors.

Last pic before I get into trouble with moderators. Naan bread with pesto sauce "pizza", fresh mozzarella pearls, smoke chicken and bacon. Quartered for ease.

The wife came across some Prosciutto on sale on day and thought it would work for Poppers....
Well havent used bacon since. smaller peppers/ grown at home, halved, garlic herb cream cheese,
wrap with Prosciutto, no toothpicks needed. Nice thin crisp and no grease.
