Hello! I just joined about 30 seconds ago! I live in Casper WY (here is weather): Weather for Casper, WY
WINDCHILL APPX 10 F25°F
Snow
Wind: NE at 8 mph
Humidity: 88%


Wed

42°F | 15°F

The snow is coming down hard-about 5" so far!

Anyway I have used my semi homemade smoker (converted from charcoal when my Dad died) and added a wood box. As you can see from above-there is NO way I could use 100% wood to smoke. So I added natural gas connection from my house and it works great! I have done well at pork and ribs. Beef brisket I need to work on as well as chicken. So any help would be greatly appreciated! I have run into a used Southern Pride machine and may be buying it soon-already on a trailer. I hope some day to travel and cook with some of you all! I am in sales now and burnt out (no pun intended!) Any tips on ANYTHING and BBQ sauces would be great! Bye for now! FNOZMAN

Welcome to SMF! There are lots of folks here who are ready and willing to share their experience. All you need to do is ask. It DOES sound like there are some areas that you might be the one sharing experience with others.
