Hello all, stumbled upon this site after ordering a Brinkmann gourmet charcoal smoker grill so now a bit concerned I made the wrong choice in equipment. Hopefully with the great advice I'm seeing in this forum I can produce some good results from my little corner of England

Hello and Welcome to our addiction.  A word of warning: There is no 12 step program for this one!  Many good folk here with a load of experience that they are more than willing to share.  If you have specific questions just start a thread and someone with experience will be along soon to offer advice.  All info you can provide us with such as smoker type, location and so on will help us answer any questions you may have.  Spend some time doing some research on the forums, tons of advice and recipes already available there.  We look forward to your contributions.  Afraid I don't own that type smoker but I am sure someone will help you out.  I did see some stuff about it on youtube.  Have fun.  Good luck.  Keep Smokin!

Good morning philmac, you can turn out great BBQ on just about any smoker, started out with that king myself. Do a couple of smokes with chicken or some sausage to get the feel of your smoker, double check the temp gauge, those things that come with the smoker are notorious for not reading correctly. Let us know how it goes and post some pictures.

Thank you both, I have a barrel barbecue which I have had some success with low and slow cooking so looking forward to wrangling with the smoker.
