Cool. I've known a few guys who did the fair/festival circuit each summer and had a nice retirement gig. If you don't mind working long hours for 10 weekends straight you can chill the rest of the year.
 
Did a nice batch of smoked Pork Carnitas for lunch.

Just got the bacon hanging in the smoker few minutes ago with a tube of pitmaster's pellets. The tube should last about 3 hours. Then back in the fridge for a rest, then repeat again tomorrow. Don't really like to cold smoke when it is this hot, but I think it will work ok for only 3 hours a day.

My smoker was delivered today. :barbecue:.

Took her to the car wash to get rid of all the grease and grime from manufacturing. Let the sun dry her out for a couple hrs before spraying the inside with cooking spray. Started a small fire and gradually brought her up to 225-250 for a few hrs. I then cranked it up to 350 before letting her cool down slowly. She's all seasoned and read to cook. I'll do a few small cooks to get the feel for her. First big cook is a whole hog Sept 9th.

If you have time it would be awesome to see a step by step photo journey on cooking a full hog.
Congrats on the purchase!

I will definitely take a bunch of pictures. I've done quite a few on a spit, but this will be my first one on a smoker.
Hopefully I don't ruin the neighbors party.. lol
