Hi all, just bought a new Smoke Vault 24" model and very excited to try smoking meat. I assembled the smoker, but that is as far as I have gotten. I am going to break in the smoker this weekend and start smoking after that. I havent gotten a good dual probe thermometer yet so any suggestings would be helpful, I am leaning toward the Maverik model. I really have no idea what I am going to cook on the smoker, I have smoked pork and beef on a gas grill before so I have some idea what to do. I have lots of questions and will look through the forums for the answers. I do have a cast iron smoke tray with a slotted lid, should I use that inside the smoke tray or just fill up the smoke try with chips and then cover the tray with foil? Any advice for the break in of my new Smoke Vault is appreciated.
