Newbie to SMF

[toastedpenguin]

I am a newbie to SMF and a newbie to using a stand alone smoker having been BBQing and smoking on a grill for years (or trying to smoke I should say).  I am an IT Engineer in the Chicago area and an experienced homebrewer.  I figured while I am standing around waiting on my mash I could be smoking some ribs or a nice beef brisket which I could than enjoy with one of my nice cold hombrews!  Just purchased a Camp Chef Smoke Vault SMV24 and can't wait to break it in!  Already looking to modify the bad boy since I have experience doing the same thing in the homebrewing world and know the benefits of tighter consistent control.  Can't wait to find tips and tricks on the forum and discussing the ins and outs of smoking meat!

Cheers!

David
