Went to a garge sale and bought a brand new Brinkman smoker for 10 bucks. I have never used one before. Can you explain or guide me to amsire that can start at the beginning and take me through the whole process? I would really like to learn how to do this? We are farmers and have our own beef, so would like a new way to cook it. If I get comfortable smoking meat, we may buy a better one. I did watch a few you tube videos,but none started at the very beginning. I need a smoking of idiots. What is your favorite type of wood to smoke with?

Thanks I will look it up and get started. It can't be that hard, just intimidating.

You should jump right in there. We caught some pork shoulder on sale for .59 a lb and bought 5 or 6 of them at around $5-$6 each. They were wonderful and all gone now :( I wish I could catch a sale like that again. Blue Fish is another one of my favorites in the smoker. I never plan enough ahead to marinate, so I usually use a rub. It sure makes the neighbors envious when the smoker is going. They throw plenty of hints throughout the smoking to let you know they want samples...lol. Good Luck.

A rind is a terrible thing to waste. Compost.

When they had all had enough to eat, he said to his disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.”

Patty, thanks for responding. I need to try. I think I am afraid it will not turn out right. Nothing ventured nothing gained.

I love my smoker. However it is electric. I just soak the chips and place them in the bottom of the smoker. Change them when they have burned up. There are lot of different rubs and marinades. I use whatever chips I have on hand. I have used cherry, hickory and apple mostly. I usually get my chips from a tree trimmer at no cost.
