Good morning. I live on the Canada border but in MN. I have a pellet smoker, and a gas grill but have been looking at Smokin-it for a few years. I just retired so the wife said go ahead an buy it. That means more meals that I will be cooking so she likes that. I have had my #2 for a couple of months now and really like it. Threw my old frig smoker away. Have been a wrapper with ribs but did some with and some without. Seems like I go back and forth with them. Today I am going to do a couple of fatties with a bacon weave. Have done them before but not on the #2. Will follow what I read on here and go at 225 until 170 inside and maybe do the grill to finish the bacon. Sorry I forgot who posted it but thanks.
