Just started smoking a few weeks ago.  My son-in-law had a Brinkmann "ECB" Smoker and was not using it, so he gave it to me.  The only mods I've made was adding a "real" thermometer to the top cover.  Have smoked some chicken thighs, pork pieces, St Louis ribs and now today some beef short ribs.  Really like the way meat tastes when smoked real slow.  Have been experimenting with different rubs, spices and sauces.  I'd like to eventually get a 22 inch Weber Smokey Mountain smoker some time in the near future.

to SMF!  We are so glad you joined us! 

We love to see pictures of what you are cooking (or what we call q-views here at SMF).  To "upload the q-views" just follow the directions here and it will be easier. If you are using a cell phone, an IPad or a kindle, go to the main SMF page and click the Mobile button. Will make the uploads a bit faster too.

If you didn't read the "Terms of Service" notes.....please do.  There are a few things that everyone should know about those pesky little rules before plunging into the forums and some guidelines of how to interact within the forums. Off site links are not allowed here at SMF per TulsaJeff. Not that you have done anything wrong....just a little bit of FYI for new members!

If you need any help roaming around the forums....just holler!  Happy to help out!
