Howdy from Texas....I am Nelson Reynolds, a recently retired USAF fighter pilot/T-38C instructor pilot here in Del Rio, TX (Laughlin AFB).  I am currently a T-6 simulator instructor teaching the basics to the future USAF and NATO student pilots.

I am just now getting into the BBQ scene so I would consider myself a beginner at this.  I smoked my first whole hog this past weekend and believe it or not....it turned out fantastic!! 

My goal here is to meet folks, hear their stories, and learn all I can from the best.

I look forward to hearing from you guys!
