Hi all, Brian here, located in Indianapolis.
I have been a lurker of this site for the past month, ever since I bought my “clearance priced†Rival K.C. Smoker from Wal-Mart. Following my purchase of this bargain priced smoker, I also purchased Jeffâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s Rub and Sauce recipe. All I can say at this point is “Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m hooked†I have been using my KC for the past three weekends in a row. First I tried Pulled Pork, then a Fattie, A Meatloaf, and this past weekend Spare Ribs. Based on these successes and my enjoyment of my “newfound hobbyâ€, I went out and bought a new MES at Sams club. Hopefully the rain will let up for me this weekend so that I can season this wonderful unit. Prior to these smokers, I had only played around with my 2004 Gas “Front Avenue Grill†(Char-Broilâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s relabeled grill sold by Costco). I would smoke ribs by adding a water pan and a wood chip filled foil packet. It wasnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t until my KC purchased led me to this fantastic site that has allowed me to “see the light through thin blue smokeâ€. So, to all of the helpful posters on this site whoâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s suggestions have helped to avoid what Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m sure would have been many countless mistakes, Thanks!!!
Now, on to research ideaâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]s and recipes for my newly acquired MES.
