Albertan newbie smoker

[murphyslaw]

Hello. I have been smoking since October,and it is safe to say I am addicted. So far I have smoked salmon, moose jerky, duck jerky, goose jerky, a moose roast, goose breasts,gouda, greenling, and ground moose jerky. I currently have some Jack fish in some brine to smoke tonight.
I use a masterbuilt electric smoker. I love it!
I'm at home on maternity leave with my son, and have nothing but time on my hands. What better to do with my time, than smoke meat!!
I can't wait to try doing ribs, and an elk roast I have been saving.

Welcome fellow Albertan! I'm in Calgary. What kind of MES do you own, where did you get it and did you get a good deal on it? I own a ECB but want an digital MES 40, just waiting for a good deal.

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome. :)
The smoker is from bass pro shop at the cross iron mills. I went in with my mother in law and got it for my bf for Christmas back in October because it was on sale...I think I use it the most because I'm always home, but he doesn't seem to mind as he always has jerky and supper has become a smoking adventure. I believe we paid $315 for it. It was about $100 off give or take a little. It was the best deal we could find at the time. It is a 30" sportsman elite, with 4 racks.
I kind of wish it had a glass door so I could see my meat smoking. Otherwise it works fantastic!
