Hi All!
I'm brand new at the smokin' stuff. I started earlier this summer when my wife received an electric smoker as an award from her work. It's been all smokin' since then. I just bought my Bandera about 2 weeks ago.
My first cook was a terrible experience as I did it all wrong as far as controlling the fire. My second was much better, but I need to do a bunch of modifications to get it to cook better. I used way too much lump and brickettes due to the many air gaps around the door of the smoke chamber and fire box lid. I also learned that the heat was going up the side of the cooking chamber.
I hope to have many years of enjoyment, not only out of the smoker, but from the new friends I will be able to meet here on this forum.
