Hi everybody,
I just signed up to the forum and wanted to say hello.
I live in Ghent, Belgium and have been grilling for many, many years. The last few years I've been experimenting with smoking and real barbecue, first with a weber kettle and more recently with a smokey mountain.
Over here in Belgium it's not as easy to keep up with the latest news from the USA, but I try to catch some podcasts and join some good forums (such as this one).
It's sometimes a rather expensive hobby for us as we have to either import a lot of the good stuff from the US of A or rely on the few local online shops who import the better rubs, sauces and what not that make our hobby easier or more enjoyable. It should come as no suprise that quite often we have to blend our own rubs, spices and sauces. I also make dried sausages and have been growing hot peppers for over 15 years and that hobby nicely incorporates with grilling/smoking because who doesn't like a little tingle in their food ;)
I've been reading on the forum quite a bit and the friendly atmosphere looks very inviting, so I just had to sign up.
