Greetings from NJ

[Matty T]

Hi everyone. I'm from North NJ, and just picked up my WSM 18.5 yesterday. I have only tried smoking once on a gas grill, and decided I should use a proper smoker and give it another go, since the desired result was not achieved.

Looking forward to trying out my new smoker today with some chicken halves. Basic rub and BBQ sauce. Nothing fancy. I can't wait to start smoking other things though. I made Jalapeno poppers for Memorial Day, and while delicious, I couldn't help but think they would have been even better smoked.

This 300$ investment already promises to make this Summer, and the Summers to come better ones!

Thanks everyone. Tried out the WSM for the first time yesterday, applewood smoked chicken. Came out good, but I can tell it is going to take a few more uses before I learn to use it properly.
