Good deal or dud? Not sure yet.

Found what may have been a good deal on a 40" masterbuilt electric smoker. Picked it up local for 100 bucks. Cleaned it up a bit and now warming it up to throw some spares in it. Crossing fingers this was a good buy. At worst, I'll have to modify it with a Firebox.
We shall see!!

I'm a tad concerned though. I gear I may need to REALLY give this thing a clean out and re-season. Smells like your heater when you turn it on for the first time of the year.. :shock:

Boom!!! The wife was on the fence first about these since It's electric. I assured her she wouldn't dislike them and sure enough, she had seconds. Lol!

Novice here, OK :?: :dont: does it have a facility for wood chips/ETC :?: Reason I ask is that many moons ago I had an electric grill that used artificial coals to give the food a "pathetic" smoke flavor - - - everyone started getting sick after a burger grill so it went to the curb for recycling :banghead: :laughing7:
