Being a Mizzou boy myself, I find it troubling welcoming anyone from yer' kneck of the woods, but I'll take one for the SMF team (all in good fun!)

Seriously, welcome! I don't have a Brinkman, but I'm sure you'll find everything you need here. I'm assuming your new smoker is a horizontal with a side firebox? Common design with my smoker, the Chargriller Pro. If it's the upright however, I can't help you, but all designs have some common points.

Just fire away with any questions you have, and smoke on!

Don't worry Matt, you are amongst Jayhawk friends here! And try not to hold the Miss-ew thing against Geek, he is a good guy who is combining technology with big metal smokers to make smoking a little less work.

I have the Brinkmann Gourmet which is the red electric units, but I know that there are lots of modifications that can be made to Brinkmanns to improve their cooking abilities.
