Hello all,
My Bradley smoker is arriving tomorrow. I am planning on smoking some pork spare ribs, baby back ribs, chicken wings and corn this weekend.
I would like to say thank you to all of the members for sharing your knowledge and experience. I look forward to learning a lot and hopefully contributing as well one day.
Robert

There are more but try those out before getting into things like enclosures for storing your Bradley outdoors, mods to your smoker, etc. I'm sure someone will be along to help you with those if you're interested.
It sounds like you're hitting the ground running with a lot of things to smoke this weekend. Take some before/after pics of your efforts and post them if you're so inclined. People around here like to see pics.

Welcome from the Bluegrass State. Pretty ambitious inaugural cook you have planned for this weekend. Don't stress if things don't go completely as planned. If you need any assistance or questions answered don't hesitate to get on here and ask. That's why we're all here. :)
Welcome from Pa. I have met some great people from Texas. :)
Welcome from central Texas.

Thanks you, TedEbear. I will be reading through each of those posts. I will also try to take some pictures to share.
I appreciate all of the great information.

Thanks KyNola,
I hope that I didn't bite of more than I can chew :) I got the ribs prepped tonight and seasoned the smoker. I am expecting to be getting more visits from the neighbors with that great smokey scent.
Thank you all for the warm welcome! This seems to be a great community of users. I know that I am going to learn a lot.
Hi and welcome to the party from South Dakota!!
Remember to keep your vent open.

Went to school in Spring from 75-78 Wuensche Middle School, back in the days when the Goodyear Blimp was out on the highway, it sure has changed a lot since then.

I had my first cook today. It went mostly very well but I also make a few mistakes and hopefully learned something.
Where is the appropriate place to post pics and discuss? It is in the Bradley model section for my smoker or elsewhere?
Thanks,
Robert

If it was a problem related to the smoker you might try the section for your particular model. If it was a problem with a specific food you might try posting in the meat, poultry, fish, etc., section.
Of course, you can always post it in this thread and I'm sure people will be glad to offer advice. :)
