Last week I bought a used smoker. I gave $15 for a Charbroil Big Easy SRG. I used it for the first time yesterday. I smoked a rack of ribs with Hickory. Wow, not only did I impress myself but I impressed my wife. She can take or leave ribs, but she didn’t stop eating till they were gone. At 52 years old, I can’t believe I’ve missed out on owning a smoker for this long! Can’t wait to try smoking Chickens and Briskets. For you experienced smokers, what’s the best wood to use for flavor?
