Seasoning for 1st time

[Wph]

I'm in the process of my initial seasoning for my new #2. After about two hours smoke is finally pouring out. Is this normal?  How long should I let it run for the initial seasoning process?

Paul,

Smoke normally starts after about 20 minutes or so on my #2, but it will be very light. You should season it for 4 hours!

Then you are ready to smoke.

Hmm, it could have been very light I suppose. Really poured out at about 2.5 hours, now about done at three hours.

Sounds like you will be fine, you just want to burn off any machine oil!

Thanks Greg. I just turned it off after 3.5, now if I was only going to be home to get smokin!

Paul,

What will your first smoke be?

Likely a pork loin. I did those a lot when I had my "other smoker". I ordered some wood from Smokealicious on Sunday.

Great choice and I think you are really going to like the Smokealicious wood also.
