I'm sorry for not introducing myself earlier... I've been gleaning info from this great forum for 6 months or so - been a BBQ fan for years but only recently able to turn out a consistent product myself.

The last pork butt and brisket smokes were big hits w/friends and family. Hearing 'best I've ever tasted' never gets old.

All the info and q-view pics here have helped me get to a B+ level or so and hoping to challenge the A level masters at some point in my future :)

Thanks to all,
Dean Martin
Chambersburg, PA

Thanks - currently just use a Webber Smokey Mountain w/no mods. Am looking to get a BBQ Guru or similar to allow more temp. probes than my little wal-mart digital provides.

I'm doing a pork butt this weekend and smoking a store bought corned beef to try my hand at pastrami (reading a couple of the threads here). I'm always in such a rush to get stuff on the smoker I always forget to take pics... will try to do better.

Here's a couple ribs I did over the summer - I like mine 'memphis dry rub' style with dipping sauce on the side

We really like to have newbies here because they can bring in a new propective to how things are done.

Here's a link to photobucket it's free and easy to download pictures. Then if your really new to smoking Look up the E-course.
