Hello..my name is Larry and I haven't had a drink in....oops sorry wrong forum....Hello..my name is Larry from NE PA and I am addicted to smoked goods. I bought a Smoke Vault 24" last summer...and I have a Weber Spirit E-310 grill.
I got the smoker mainly for smoking peppers that I grow and use in my chili. I use a lot of smoked paprika and it cost a fortune in the store so I decided to make my own. I also use a lot of Poblano and Anaheim peppers as well.
Last summer my son was up from MD and we pulled an all nighter smoking a 17lb brisket and a 7lb & 9lb butt that turned out fantastic. I've also done some ribs and meatloaves since then too. Jerky is on my todo list as soon as I mod my smoker.
I've been lurking around here for quite a while now and I have a project started that I need to pick some brains on. Basically I'm adding a propane tank firebox to the Smoke Vault. I see that some have done so here as well. But more on that when I get the energy to start a thread on it.
Just a heads up...I'm disabled and it takes me time to get around to do things...so if I dont respond right away I'm not ignoring anyone..I will eventually get back to ya. Just cant sit at a computer too long at a time so I'm in and out. Thanks for adding me to your smokey addiction!

P.S....One question...is there a wait period for posting pics here? Be easier to explain things with pics as I have things drawn up on AutoCad.
