I've been digging through some of your threads and just wanted to say heelo from San Louie, Missery.

I'm an avid eater of BBQ, done a bit of grilling on a pair of Webbers and a few pork shoulders on an Alton-Brown style flower pot smoker (I modded mine a bit, but that is another thread). But I see most folks do the foil wrap, can't say I ever have.

Bought an MES last night at Sams, wanted to buy one last year but they were gone by the time I decided to put out the money. Glad I didn't with the new improvements. I'm gonna try and break it in and do a brisket this weekend. So looking for any tips, tricks, suggestions.

Thanks ahead of time for any help and knowledge I might be scrounging off ya,

TC

PS Yep, signed up for the 5 day course... if I read faster can I get them sooner?
