Hello all,
I am creating this thread as a means to document my head first dive into the world of smoken'
It started in March when I spotted a Brinkman Smoke n' grill my mother in law was going to throw out after only one use. It was in rough shape and missing the water pan. But I grabbed a pork loin, some charcoal and gave it a shot. It went well. I was hooked. Almost every weekend since has involved waking up early and getting the old girl fired up. I have tried a variety of different cuts with varying degrees of success. My first pork shoulder came out terrible but my friends were fighting each other for the first rack of ribs.
I spent a lot of time reading about techniques and tricks and how to get the best end product. The more I read the more I realized my dented old smoker just wasn't going to cut it.
And then...I found the mother of all UDS threads...and that is where the story picks up. I'm hoping to start building mine this weekend and getting some practice on it before a big cookout June 8th.
Stay tuned...
