I'm a Mainer who loves Southern-style BBQ.

I've turnd out some good BBQ with that little flower pot smoker! But it is fussy sometimes.

So I decided to go automated. I was looking at buying a Bradley through Amazon when I saw a review that said "Buy a Cookshack because they are made like tanks and produce a great product". So I looked at the Cookshack web site and son-of-a-gun if I didn't take delivery on a SM025 last Monday. I'm still working on setting up the smoker in a 20sf Suncast Garden shed, but should be ready to season it by Sunday.

Menwhile I'm reading this great forum and trying to soak it all in.

What should I try for my first smoke? Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Plugged the SM025 and set the temp to season the smoker and the GFI tripped. I reset it and tried again. Tripped again. Tried it a third time. Tripped again.

Guess I have to call CS on Monday. How disappointing.
