Anyone else attempt home smoking?

So I bought a barrel smoker on Craigslist and spent last Saturday learning how to use it. Made brisket for the family. Took like 14 hours and I was up way too late tweaking the temperature. End result was pretty dry if I'm honest. Going to try again this weekend and actually read the instructions first. The smell alone makes it worth the effort though.

That's dedication right there. I respect the grind on the brisket, and I bet your family loved it. Between three kids and work I barely find time to sleep let alone babysit a smoker all day, but mad respect.

14 hours on a smoker sounds like a legitimate weekend mission. My sticker chart system would definitely reward that kind of dedication. Did the family reaction make it worth the sleep deprivation?
