Hello from Northeast Pennsylvania

[Bob Bird]

Hello all! Happy new year. I have been using an electric smoker for a few years but I figured it was time to graduate to a charcoal smoker. I purchased a 22.5" WSM. My first cook will be a pork loin for New Years day and I can't wait to taste the smokey goodness. Looking forward to chatting with y'all!

We are glad to have you. Enjoy that bad boy. Looking forward to pics of that first cook.

My first cook on my new WSM:







It was absolutely delicious! Had a little trouble keeping the smoker up to temp. Only because it was about 12 deg. F and breezy, but I managed. Next time if it's that cold I will cook in my garage.

That looks excellent . Yes cold temp is about the only draw back to a WSM other than killing my waist line.

Welcome Bob and great looking first cook!
