Hello To All.

I've been reading this site for a couple weeks and decided to go ahead and join.  I'm not new to cooking but I am new to smoking. I have had gas grills and electric grills but never a smoker until now. I bought myself a Traeger Jr as an early birthday gift and I've been playing around with it for a week. Thanks for all the input and hard work that everyone contributes. I'm looking to get advice and different prespectives on everything related to smoking from rubs, sauces(not that I ever use any), to cuts of meat, and wood pellets combinations.

Thanks again

Thanks. I'll post some pics this weekend. I'm on my way to the meat market as we speak.
