Will you be around tomorrow late morning?

Excellent vid guys think I might try this as my first smoke. Hope you dont mind answering a few questions for me? What weight was the meat? How long was the total cook time? Can I buy the rubs you used in the UK? Was you maintaining a constant temp? If so what temp?

Many regards

I have recently been given some trimmimgs from a friends apple tree, being new in th smoking game I was wondering if I needed to do anything to the wood before attempting to smoke with it? Some of the wood is quite thin and some has a small amount of fungi on it. Hope someone can help?

sorry if this is a silly question but how did you keep the heat going all that time?

Thanks for replying to my post, think ill take wonder down my local farm shop and take a look what they sell. I'm not sure what you call the type of smoker I have but it is a half barrel on its side with a chiminey coming from one side.

I purchased a very cheap smoker from Morrison in the summer and am just about to build it. I'm having a lot of trouble trying to find wood to use anyone have any ideas or advise in the kent area?
