Just got my first smoker- an old New Braunfels -garage sale $25. No clue bout model or anything - it horizontal with the smoke stack on the right and a round firebox on the left...has a thermometer above the handle...surface rust but sounds solid when tapped...weighs more'n i xpected when i threw er in my xplorer. i'll try for pics next weekend. been round grillng and slow spit cookin for 40+ years, but cept for whole pigs, mostly simple grill stuff...ya know, steaks, burgers, dogs, chops, some salmon...been using an old Lazyman picked up (you guessed right) at garage sale...
had to replace the burners- found some new ducane stainless at closeout at ace hardware when my local changed their house brand and made them work. its all stainless top to bottom, so cept for cleaning its easy care.
got stacks of old oak accumulating from trimmin my trees, guess i'll start with that...
one question, being in florida we have a few citrus trees...didnt see any mention of citrus wood in the forums...is there anything wrong (maybe toxic fumes from the oil?) that i should be aware of??? thanks.
