Hello everyone! I am a first time smoker. I won my Bradley Original Smoker as a Safety Reward from SunCor. Awesome reward, but unfortunately the puck auto feeder does not work. I smoked my first turkey though and wow did it ever come out great.
Welcome aboard. Here are some links to a few troubleshooting tips on fixing the puck advance.
Why do my bisquettes advance using the Advance Button, but are not properly advancing Automatically every 20 minutes? (http://www.susanminor.org/forums/showthread.php?488-Answers-To-Bradley-Smoker-FAQ-s&p=775#post775)
Why won't my bisquettes advance when I push the Advance button? (http://www.susanminor.org/forums/showthread.php?488-Answers-To-Bradley-Smoker-FAQ-s&p=777#post777)
On the turkey, did you finish it in the oven or smoke/cook it entirely in the Bradley. Usually, people will do the smoke part in the Bradley and then finish cooking in the oven. The Bradley tends to leave it with a rubbery skin due to the lower temps. The oven makes it crisp.
Welcome to the forum. If you can't work out the glitch you can count on the customer service at Bradley. They go out of their way to get you going quick.
