Hi Guys,

My name is Greg but I guess you will all know me as jgmurray51.

I retired from the Navy in May of 1990 after 20 years as a Chief Petty Officer (E-7)  and

currently live just west of Atlanta, Georgia.

I am new to this type of activity. Not too much place for a Smoker on a ship.

I smoke on/in a Brinkmann Trailmaster Heavy Gauge Vertical Charcoal Smoker.

I say that I am new since  I have to date, smoked exactly two racks of Baby Backs (at different times).

They say you can't teach an old sea dog new tricks, but, I hope to learn some from this Forum

as well as from a couple other websites.

Welcome from SC, Greg. It's good to have you on this great site. There are lots of really good folks here who are always ready to share their ideas, recipes and tips. All you have to do is ask and keep on reading.

Thank you for your service. I don't know how much west you are from Atlanta, I have. Friends in Villa Rica.

Good luck and good smoking. Joe. :grilling_smilie:

Thanks for your kind words.
