New to the group

Good day everyone, I am located in Oregon city, OR

Wife bought me a Masterbuilt Sportsman Elite 40" Vertical Gas Smoker for Christmas. Smoked a 6lb prime rib which turned out great so we thought, with that said I have much to learn and read.

I have heard that this smoker should be modded to truly perform, so that is mission 1 and partially why I joined the forum.

Thanks for your time

Travis

  Good evening and welcome to the forum, from a cold and drizzly  day here in East Texas. Lots of great people with tons of information on just about  everything.

so much to read on this site to say the least.

one item I find interesting is folks installing a stack on their brand new smokers, how necessary is this really and wouldn't that allow to much oxygen to the wood causing flare ups?

Keep us posted on the mods
