So, I used my new smoker... or... really... I lit it and didn’t use it.

Not having prepped fuel, I used some cardboard I shredded off a box from amazon.

Here’s what the inside of the smoker looked like after one burn.

That’s a lot of dark and sticky residue.

I think I’ll try to source something a little less vile.
