Newbie smoker and new member here.

[justinwatson88]

Hello everyone my name is Justin and im from Northwest Georgia (Chatsworth,Dalton) area. Ive always loved barbeque and eating smoked foods and such at cookouts. Never owned a smoker and wanted one so being a pipe welder/fabricator i decided to build my own. Built a 24" diamater by 48" long reverse flow patio style. Ive posted a thread with pics in the build forum.Being a newbie i look forward to learning alot from this site and all its members.
