The rain forced me into the garage for my first smoke on the new SM040. I seasoned the unit on saturday for about 5 hours with 4oz of hickory.

I had a 3 1/2 lb bison brisket (flat), rubbed with my own mix ready to go on Sundy when the monsoons started so i set up shop in the garage out of the elements. I have plenty of ventilation so I wasn't too concerned. I smoke cooked the brisket at 235 with only about 2oz of mesquite. i didn't want to over smoke on my attempt with the CS. I put it in at room temp and brought the CS up to temp and left it alone for 3 hours. At this point the internal temp was @150. I wrapped the meat in HD foil and back in she went for another 1 1/2. The end result was very good. Not fall apart tender like a beef brisket but the bison is much leaner and I expected this. It was perfect for slicing.

All in all I'm very pleased with this first cook and look forward to many more!
