Hi guys, Im new to the forum and plan on being around here quite a bit! My name is Matt, and I have been a bbq fan for a loooong time. Im 48 years old, married, with 2 great kids.

I have always used the Weber Kettle Grill to smoke meats, using charcoal and wood chips. I love the way that works and the great results I get. However, life is busy, and I cant devote as much time to stoking a fire as I would like to nowadays. So I got a Masterbuilt 30' 4 Rack Electric Smoker. I used it only once so far, and had decent results with a Pork Shoulder, but awful results with a brisket. I think I used the wrong cut of  meat, as it was dry and sand (made great chili the next day, though).

So thats about it. Thanks!
