Hi guys, it's my first day here and I'm looking for some general advice. I ordered a WSM online yesterday and am hoping to be cooking with it next weekend. I've been doing indirect grilling using wood chips on my 22 1/2" Weber kettle grill for several years but have never before owned a smoker. So before I get started I'm wondering what accessories I might need to buy. From scanning this board it sounds like a probe thermometer is a must. Is that for checking the temperature of the smoker, the food or both? What else might I expect to need/want?
Another thing I'm wondering about is cooking at altitude. I live just outside of Albuquerque which is about 5000 ft above sea level. I'm curious if anyone has any experience with how that might affect cooking times and temperatures.
Great board, by the way, I've been enjoying reading. Thanks in advance for any suggestions and advice.
