Howdy from the Lone Star State! Seasoned my #1 within two days of receiving her (like most epic equipment, most definitely a "her" ;D ). Christened with 5 lbs of chicken breast. Have a freezer full of hog, deer and beef destined for great things! My heart's set on some venison meat treats for Christmas Day. Any thoughts/suggestions welcomed. Looking forward to learning and smokin' with y'all!!
