    As has been said before-ask away and you will get plenty of help, opinions and more.  And if we don't know the answer we will come up with something and make it sound "all good".  Below is a link that is a wealth of info-for anyone with a ceramic cooker.  Use it as a good first reference and you wil be well on your way.

    This is a journey, enjoy and welcome:)

    Thanks, bud.  Been a Weber owner for years, took the plunge on this thing this time - what I wanted before I got the Weber......Loving it so far, smoking a butt as I type this.

    You will only wonder "why did I wait so long"-and I came over from the Weber and water gasser side after too many years as well.  I am most impressed with the painless low&slow cooks-I invest all my time and effort on the front-end, with food and fire prep etc, but once the lump is going this thing runs almost on cruise control-and that's without the electronic controllers. Not to mention the finished product-you can pretend to be extremely busy watching the Q over the course of the day...and that alone is invaluable.
