Hi everyone! I'm new, too, and thrilled to find this forum. I got my smoker several years ago and have done many different meats in it: ribs, brisket, poultry, pork, etc. Probably my favorite is a smoked prime rib, which is so good I could practically eat the whole thing by myself.

What led me to you all is I'm doing a whole brisket for a picnic tomorrow and I was looking for information on how to trim the meat. (First time with a whole untrimmed slab.) Found the main Smoking Meat site, got here from there. Nice to find a whole forum devoted to smoking meat with so many knowledgeable folks.

Thanks to everyone for the welcome. As soon as I can get out of this cubicle I'm going home to put my smoker together and "season" it. Any recommendations on how to properly accomplish this?

Jeff

Welcome Cheesehead!
When I seasoned my propane smoker I sprayed it with pam and ran it for a couple of hours at 250 to 300 degrees. I hope this helps.

Welcome Cheesehead -

I have a Camp Chef too. Which one did you get? I love it! If you have any quetion just give a yell!

 

[cheesehead]

Since this is my first smoker I got the 18 inch. I can see that maybe I should have gone for the 24 in but this one will work fine for me now.

Thanks for all the friendly remarks. I will let you know how things are going. There is a world of information here in this forum.

Thanks again.

Jeff

Cheese head -

My first smoker was a cardboard box with a light bulb - obviously I was limited to jerky and cheeses. You'll love it!
