Hi all! I am new here AND new to smoking. Cooking in the mile high city can sometimes be challenging. I'm taking it slow and figuring things out. Hubby and I bought a #1, as it's just the 2 of us (and the occasional neighborhood get together.) I've always wanted to do smoking as a cooking method and I'm not sure what took me so long to take the plunge. Probably thought it was too complicated or too much work, but I have to say that so far using my Smokin-it #1 has been much easier than I imagined. No pre heating, no adding additional wood along the way, no basting (granted I haven't done any ribs in it yet). I'm so impressed with the quality of this little guy! And I truly appreciate the small footprint of the vertical smokers. My neighbor's Treager is huge and takes up a ton of space on his deck. Not my little champ! Anyway, my goal is to learn to smoke multiple types of food all at once and share with the neighbors, and do so with confidence. I promised the hubby one day we would smoke salmon (I don't eat fish and the thought of cooking one grosses me out). P.S. I am going through foil like no tomorrow and have recurring anxiety about not having enough for a cook, so I end up buying a handful of boxes every week when I shop. Gathering quite the foil stockpile!
