Oklahoma Joes Longhorn - Inaugural smoke w/ Qview (HEAVY WITH PICS)

[kofseattle]

Just got an Oklahoma Joes Longhorn to replace my old broken down indirect and this is my first smoke on it. Had some friends over, watched some baseball and had some BBQ. I am new here and the way I understand it is that without Qview, it didn't happen :) Not bad for a first smoke on a new Q..... Love the Longhorn!

Put the BBQ together and seasoned it, heavy bugger...
