Hi Folks, My name is Norm (aka Wayneman) and I am from Escondido, CA. I am turning 60 and have just purchased my first smoker. A Masterbuilt 30" electric, model 20070411, remote, meat probe, etc. During my pre-purchase research I decided to also buy an A-Maze-N pellet smoker because cold smoking interests me. I have seasoned the smoker(s) per instructions but have not used them yet. First order of business was to build a stand for the MES. Maybe the younger smokers don't mind being on the ground, made no sense to me. I have tasted some excellent food from backyard smokers and am excited about being able to produce the same results. BUT, I gotta say, in all the reading it gets a little over whelming as to where to start. This web site looks like a great place for a newbie. I can't wait to get started, I hope you are all ready for a new round of questions. Thanks for allowing me to introduce myself. (PS: Start up date is 10-4-12, kayak fishing in Mexico first.)
