No, I am not eyeing my neighbor's wife (not that I would admit it any way,) but he does have a NB Bandera parked on the side of his house and never uses it....and I HAVE been eyeballing that!
I have never smoked anything in my life, but I am a reasonably experienced professional cook and have been wanting to play around with smoking. I am determined to start doing it, so I talked to him and made him a deal...he lends me the smoker and I will give him slices of whatever I smoke as I learn.
I have read the Bandera 101 mod document and will make the necessary mods to his smoker. I am going to fire up my first brisket on Sunday.
I can handle the rub recipe ok on my own......any other suggestions?
For a simple first time attempt, what are your recommendations for wood variety? How much wood should I buy?
Feel free to point me to a "sticky" or other basic posts about this, I am pretty sure these questions have been asked a million times.
