Hello everyone, I am a newbie in the great art form of smokin'. I haven't actually smoked anything yet but I have done a lot of reading and study. I live in northeast Wisconsin and we are about to get some really cold weather in about 6 weeks so I want to get started smoking. I just purchased a really great book, Smoking Meat by Jeff Phillips. I can see from this website that there is no shortage of really great info. So i'm glad to be hear. jrob87
