Rookie in Washington

[timbre]

Hello all.

I'm up in Arlington, WA

Been smoking stuff for about 3 years now. Mainly stuck with ribs and turkeys. Running a Brinkman Pitmaster

Hopefully this winter I can get myself in gear and upgrade and build a new much larger smoker.

Looks like a lot of good information on here.

Talk to y'all soon.

After reading just a few posts I realize how little I know and how much better I can make my smoked items.

I hate to start asking stupid questions..... but... can anyone point me to a link for how tuning plates work and how to use them in conjunction with a water tray???

thanks

I don't know where to ask it so I'll put it here.

What fruit woods are good for smoking? Is cherry?

thanks

Cherry and apple are great and easy to obtain in WA. Rule of thumb is if it bares fruit it will be safe to smoke with. So plum, crab apple and wild cherry would be other choices of wood in the PNW.
