Finally got the new SS2 from Kevin at Superior Smokers. Dude is a great person to do biz with. HAND DELIVERED. That is service.
The only thing I can say I did not figure out until a few hours - yea the guru has a dang damper thing on it. No wonder it did not want to climb up in temp. LOL. Finally got it seasoned, and tossed in some food.
Cooking on Royal Oak Lump (I am limited to my choices here in Lakeland, and my options are cowboy or this- long story)..And CHERRY chunks I bought from my wood connection.
Friends heard it was here and came by. 4 racks of ribs later.. They just showed up at random times.. No joke.
Wifey wanted meatloaf at 8pm, sure honey lets go.
Buddy brought me some wings and sausage (naked fatty) with his rack.
Even put the trimmings in a pan, why not.
Did I say I am STOKED about this thing. Its gangsta'.
Whoops forgot the pan for the grease. Oh well. Just canola.
