Wanted to Say Hi

[slick4591]

Wanted to stop by and let you know who the guy behind the Slick name is. I've been smoking for around 35 years and professionally since 2003. I owned and operated a BBQ restaurant almost four years until I figured out that catering was less work and more money. So I got rid of the resto, built my commercial kitchen in a building I had out back, plugged in my Cookshack and opened up in this small town NE of Dallas.

I dabble in most foods with my biz and have done just about everything but Asian. That's next on the catering list, though. Actually, the next thing on my personal list is learning to cure and cold smoke. This board looked like a place that might have a few folks with that kind of knowledge, so here I am.

Hope to spend a little time here between jobs and soak up some experience.

Welcome aboard, Slick! Glad to have you here. Sounds like your an ol' pro at this. I look forward to your input and expertise. BTW there used to be a BBQ joint in my neck of the woods (N.E. Okla.) called Slick's BBQ. This place's 'que was pretty legendary around here for a long time. Any chance that was you? (Not too far-fetched, Oklahoma/Texas bein' border states?)

Wasn't me, but I wanted to name my resto that. The wife talked me out of it because there was a place here named Pecker's and most of the town wouldn't go there because of the name. She said that this small town wasn't ready for a place called Slick's. I never regard myself as a pro, only a hack, but I'll be glad to chime in. Thanks for the welcomes.
