Did you get any goodies with it.
You do know you need to season it before cooking on it. Right?
Your going to love it I am sure but there are some things you should know up front
1, Read the warranty
2, Decide who is getting it when you're gone and add their name on the warranty papers (  ). Might want to update your will while your at it.
3 if you didn't buy a firebox basket have someone make you two of them. On long smokes you will thank me. When refueling you just lift one out, set the other one in, and your off again. I did that on my New Braunfel smoker and loved it
Could you tell me about the air dampening system and how you like it when the time allows?
Oh yeah, It that unit 3/16" or 1/4" steel. At 500lbs I an guessing 1/4". |
Yeah it's a Wichita. I had a 16" smoker for the last 15-20 years and wore it out. It was a Brinkman but a heavy steel offset smoker. I paid $100.00 for it at a Price Cutter. Best deal ever. I always wanted a bigger one though and now I have one. The 20" seems "uge". I got the Heat Management Plate but I didn't know about the Fire Basket so I may acquire one later. I've got it seasoned up already and it's ready to go and we'll have some Q on Sunday for the game. I think I'll double up and do Brisket and Ribs. Make some Burnt Ends. Smoke a few fresh Jalapenos maybe. Yeah that's it......
