Hello all - Built a garbage can electric smoker last week and have successfully done a chuck roast, trout and chicken quarters. Now time to clean up the drippings and read thru the forums - Mike

Would love to see pics of your rig. What are you using for temperature control?

It's a metal garbage can with a 1000 watt hotplate at the bottom!
I have a general purpose cooking thermometer sticking out the lid to get me into the ball park, and a digital thermometer with probe for measuring internal temp
