Hello Everyone,
Just wanted to say thanks to all the members on this forum.  I received an OBS for Christmas and my first smoke attempt was rather disappointing.  In fact we threw most of it away.  But!  Thanks to the wealth of information here, every attempt since has been edible and my last few absolutely delicious.  I have my second attempt at brisket smoking right now.  The first one lasted just over 24 hours before it was consumed  ;)

I also constructed a PID controller using information posted here and parts from Auberins who provided first class service. 

Cheers!

Welcome BrentS, nice to see that things are working out with your OBS. Take it from me we all have had the odd disaster from time to time, some of us still do occasionally   :-[  all part of the fun.

Great to have you aboard.  :)

Welcome to the forum Brent, the wealth of information here will pull you out of more than a few hot spots indeed. I wish I had my Bradley when I lived up on Capital Hill in Seattle. Being that close to the Fish Market would have been nice. Keep up posted on how the smoking is coming. Again, welcome....Dave
WHEN THERE'S SMOKING TO DO, I MUST'NT BE SLOW. SO IT'S HIP, HIP, HIP, AND AWAY I GO!
