Hello Everyone,
I'm totally new to smoking and joined the forum last Summer, but am just getting around to an introduction. Back in July I acquired an el-cheapo Brinkmann Vertical Charcoal Smoker that I've modified for better air flow. I'm thinking of trying to insulate it for better cook times and moisture. Used it three times so far to cook pork shoulder, beef ribs, and beer can chicken. Next month I'm going to make a bacon-wrapped smoked turkey recipe that I found here: http://www.finecooking.com/recipes/bacon-wrapped-smoked-turkey.aspx (be sure to watch the video).
Just wanted to say thanks in general for all the great tips and recipes on this forum that have already helped. I hope to be contributing my own points of wisdom soon.
Jeff
