Friday will be the test, going in the morning and get a butt and 4 slabs of ribs and a 10 pound sack of leg quarters and smoke it all up Friday for the weekend.

Thanks guys for the heads up on the chips!!!
True John. Efficient is what you have available - like lots of wood some of us have for our traditional smokers. Zero cost, pecan in mine. If the smoker is well built, minimum baby-sitting involved. Pork and chicken are easy, anyone can do that. Brisket is another story.
