Hello ladies and gents,
I have really become interested in smoking by watching the tv competitions. Once I started searching for smokers I stumbled upon this website and read numerous forums which interested me even more. So I am an avid gas and charcoal griller, but never have I ever attempted any smoking. However, I am ready to dive in head first. I know someone asked a similar question a few weeks back, but this are my questions. Should I get a cheap smoker to learn the arts or should I bite the bullet and go ahead and get the Smokehouse? Through reading this site it led me to the Smokehouse and that is a beautiful piece of cooking equipment. Also, the gravity feed that should be coming out looks nice too, but are they too advanced for me or would I be better served to just get to know this smoker while learning the trade? I am wanting to do either charcoal or stick smoking, so is it possible to charcoal smoke on the Smokehouse? Also, how much charcoal can you expect to use when using it for smoking. Please don't hold back any advice because I am anxious to learn. I would love to start doing a little competition smoking in the future so any help would be greatly appreciated.
