I am in Montreal I would love something like this, bunch of smokers going on, a dip in the pool to cool off (if I ever open it heheh) and lots of good food, beers and conversation.

So being new to this, I have no idea where to buy meat (other then reg grocery store)

Where do you guys go to buy a pork shoulder? And how much per pound is reasonable up here?

Does costco have anything? I bought some ribs there.

Nick,

what area of Toronto are you in?

I'm on the west end and know of a great butcher shop, but its north of Oakville, so it may be too far for you.....

Not actually in Toronto, Oakville Burlington border. 

So likely pretty close (is yours in Milton?)

Where are you located?
 
North Toronto here.
Great idea for an Ontario group, count me in.
Any ideas on where I can find bulk woods for smoking?
Ontario gas BBQ have a large selection of woods for smoking. I especially like the Jamaican Pimento wood they import, makes fabulous Jerk Chicken, but I use it for other cooks because of the fabulous flavour it imparts.

I think I need to go check this place out one day. It seems awesome.

Another option if there is one local is Barbecue

Anyone know a Canadian source to get an A-Maze-N pellet smoker and pellets?
Shipping for me was more then the unit and the guys at bbq galore had never heard of it. 
 
Nick, Ontario Gas BBQ has the amazen pellet smoker, along with the tube smoker. They also carry BBQer's Delight pellets, they are on the expensive side at $5.00 for a 1 pound bag, but they are 100% wood flavor. You could also try Traeger pellets . You can find them at any Home Hardware. They are not as good as they are a mix of alder or oak and the flavor wood.

I'm north of acton, the butcher is on Trafalgar 15 minutes north of the 401, on the left side called Agram's.
They are a family from eastern Europe, great little shop, special order cuts and dried meats.
I like the value.

There's a small shop on the east end of upper middle road, in oakville. On the north side, can't remember the name....there's a Starbucks in the plaza.
The guy has steaks hanging for 40+days and a whole bunch of crazy stuff going on.

I bought a MES 30 too except the new 2013 model. there are times I wish I had bought the "old" style as thats what most people on here have.

I just did my first butt in it today, was quite a bit different then I planned... (im posting a q-view)

good luck with the ribs! I have used a similar rub tastes great
