Hi smokincowboy and welcome to the SMF . Youv'e come to the right place to get ton's of great information to start you smoking!!

I also own a GOSM (great outdoors smokey mountain gasser) and love it. We cook year round here in michigan. You'll be suprised how well it keeps it's temperature, even in the cold. Wind seams to effect it more but there's even things you can do about that :D

Again Welcome!!!

smokincowboy -

Welcome! Don't let the temperatures hold you back my ECB held up until 5 degrees last weekend! From what I've seen your GOSM should do fine (you might freeze but it can take it)!

Welcome to the SMF, hey a little cold weather should not stop you from smoking meat.

Glad you are here
