I'm sure what ever you decide on will turn out great. Be sure and get a
probe thermometer so you know when things are done. You can get a simple
one for around $5 or a more elaborate electronic one with a cable that lets
you read the temp from outside of the smoker. I have a remote one that lets
me things in the house or garage and still check the temp.

I just bought my first WSM.
Will be going to Costco for some meat.
What should I smoke first? I never cooked a real BBQ meal before.
(I will follow www.virtualweberbullet.*com steps for fuel and temp
control).
Is poultry best for training or should I go straight for ribs and
brisket?

Thanks
