New to Smoking and New Member as well....Colorado

[Blowby]

Picked up a New Braunfels a few months ago (free on CL) and have smoked with it about 25-30 times. Nothing that is longer than 12 hours from starting coal to finished resting so no brisket. Family and friends are happy but to me it's not quite there LOL...

Hope to learn a lot on this forum.

BTW I stumbled on a Yoder Loaded Witchita yesterday and jumped on it ASAP. 2019 build date and owner said it was used 3 times by his wife, so like new.
First smoke was Elk backstrap with a 30 second per side sear. Yum. This Yoder is a different animal, moving up in the smoking world.

Welcome from Alberta. For a new smoker, this is the absolute best forum you could join. Just ask whatever questions you have and someone will jump in to help out. And on this site, there are no dumb questions.

Thanks for the welcome everyone. I’ll post some rib pictures on the new smoker this weekend.

The old smoker that I will pass on to my youngest son to get another generation started.

Yoder Loaded Witchita under wraps until Sunday.

Passing a good one on to the son. And really hate you gotta look at that background while your cooking! What part of the country do you call home.

Jim, I'm in Boulder County, CO.
I told my son we need to do a few cooks before he carts it away. Trying to pass on a little knowledge or mistakes to avoid.
