CookShack newbie - ordered a new CS 55 today

Welcome to the Cookshack nation.

We always look forward to input from the left coast.

Thanks, Tom! For now the input is going to be mostly incoming to this small corner of the left coast, but soon I hope to be able to impart some wisdom on my own.

Hi, Robbi,

We are very glad to have you here. Many of the forum "old-timers" (and I know I will pay dearly for using that term) are talented and experienced bbq chefs. This is a friendly group, and very generous about helping Cookshack newcomers. Even if you are experienced at smoking you may have some questions specifically pertaining to your new Cookshack smoker, and this is a good place to ask those questions.

From time to time we make special price offers to the forum that do not appear elsewhere, so keep your eyes out.

Welcome,

I have had my smokette about 3 weeks and have done baby back ribs, spareribs, 2 briskets, boston butt, and a chicken. All have turned out perfectly thanks to the smokette and the advice I have read by lurking around in this forum. I can't believe how good of a cook the smokette makes me. It's almost like the ronco thing on TV ... "Set it and forget it".

oldtimers????
