we were all pulling for you Subie Smoke!Thanks for your help dog. It took 11 hours and was just perfect. You would never had known it was my first try
Its a lot of pressure smoking a expensive piece of meat and worrying about not doing it right.
It was quiet a while ago ,but when I started smoking meat ,with those same fears as you ,I practised the first coupla of times smoking a 18" piece of 4x4 cedar till I got the knack.
