I've used this site religiously for YEARS, figured I may as well join the Pitmaster club already. Looking forward to participating in a good ol' fashioned forum

Do you find the altitude changes much of anything for your long smokes?

Not very much, really. I'm at 6300 ft. msl here in Parker (where water boils at almost exactly 200 F.) so getting something like a brisket to a temperature higher than 200 seems like it would be problematic (likely need to wrap and finish in an oven). Fortunately, I focus on things that don't need to get quite that hot (e.g., ribs need to go to 190 or just a little higher). Baking bread, however is another story ...
