Got the newly acquired New Braunfels out of the back of the truck this morning after the rain and cleaned her up inside as good as I could. I decided to light a fire in her just to see how she performs as is before any mods are done. I knew there were a lot of loose fitting parts, but holy moly she smokes everywhere! Have some lump in her with a few small sticks of oak just to experiment. Only thing I did was roll up some flashing and stick in the chimney
As I get time I will convert her to a RF and probably drop the FB so she can breath better. 'Course she will get sanded down and a good coat of high temp black to make her look presentable
It isn't a wasted day as I have a slab of baby backs in the 'lil ECB two door square smoker
A friend sent me a 4 pack of the famous Rendezvous rub and boy does that stuff smell goooood!!! Sure wish I could get close to duplicating it
