just want to say howdy to everyone, been lurking for several days and the information is great. i worked several years at a local bbq joint back in the 60s as a kid and have been cooking ever since. looks like time for an upgrade to a gosm, then upgrade the gosm, larger water pan like the oblong blue roasting pan i did corn in 20 years ago but threw out, harbor freight dutch oven for the wood pan, possible add lower vents, and of course, a couple accurate thermometers. see by other posts the thermometers are available almost locally. also peculiarmike if you read this, i figured the name out, cause im about 30 miles from ya, ever ate at the stillwell smoke house? thanks for all the good info guys, tjw in kans.

foregot to mention, the little country store down here has a small trailer type commercial propane smoker with a ferris wheel type set up that keeps the meat rotating. had the baby back ribs last winter, not too bad, could have been a little smokier, but hey, i am picky, saved me a lot of trouble. thats why i am thinking of going to propane, more even heat in the cold weather.
