Hi All,
I picked up my new Meadow Creek TS70 today and started playing around with it and I have a few questions that I was hoping the community could help with. I plan to do my first cook tomorrow but today got it fired up to the do the initial seasoning.
First off, I noticed there is a small hole on the bottom of the tank towards the fire box. At first I was wondered this was a mistake (since i saw smoke coming out of it) but then I started thinking that that was there to let water get out after washing. Just wanted to confirm with anyone that I am thinking correctly there.
Also, just wanted to see if anyone had any tips for fire lighting and getting the smoker up to temperature. I just followed the instructions provided in the manual today but I am sure there are other methods. I bought the charcoal basket insert. This is my first experience with an offset smoker (my first smoker is a WSM).
Thanks in advance!
