Howdy from central Texas

After much research I just ordered a #2. Considered a propane smoker and big box store electrics, but decided to spend the extra $$$ for something that will last. I’ve been smoking on my propane grill lately using a smoke tube, and also have done quite a bit on my Orion cooker. Just ready to take it to the next level but don’t want to spend my time tending a fire.

Gonna stick with analog for now, but I have a background in electronics, including the design of PID temperature controllers, so I’m sure I will start doing mods before long.

This community is pretty awesome and I look forward to learning from all y’all!

Welcome to the family!  The #2 was my first smoker and I miss it. 

You should build a nice, user-friendly, modern PID and license it to Steve..  the PIDs that are produced by Auber and used on the Smokin-Its are pure garbage.

Welcome from another Texan who chose the model 2 analog and is very happy with it.
