My name is Clayton and I'm a Texan who wound up in Budapest, Hungary. Last year, my wife gave me a ProQ Smoker. I've used it a decent bit, but I still feel mostly lost. I must say that this site helps a lot and I come here often for advice. Now that summer is in full swing again, the smoker is back out and being used. I like smoking fish, cheese, corn, beef, chicken, pork and different sausages. I also enjoy trying out unconventional things. I look forward to learning a lot and getting better at using my smoker.

I used the above smoker (no help from my son) and wound up with some pretty good chicken and garlic, all smoked with oak. I have to thank everyone for all the informative posts on here. It helped a ton! This was also my first try with using a brine for the chicken. I'm pretty practiced with garlic, something I love, but the chicken was a new recipe all around. It turned out pretty nice and juicy.

  Good afternoon and welcome to the forum from a pretty nice day here in East Texas, and the best site on the web.

        Lots of great people with tons of information on just about everything.

Also, just to show the Hungarian side of things, since I'm presently living in Budapest, here is mangalica bacon that we roasted over a fire. You use the bread to catch the drippings, and then eat the bacon once most of the fat is melted off. It makes one happy to say the least. Oh, and of course you have to roast onions with the bacon.

That sounds incredibly tasty!
