Greetings to all !!!! I am a total Newby to not only this forum but also to smoking !! I purchased a char griller a couple of weekends ago and found this forum which has been THE MOST HELPFUL !!! My husband and I tend to hang out in our backyard quite a bit, so now we will be smoking whatever we can find !!! Our first attempt at it included stuffed pork loin, chicken, and a flank steak. All turned out better than I ever expected. After researching the forum I purchased the rub recipe !!! While my husband may have been shocked as he!! at first that I PURCHASED a recipe I think we would both agree it was TOTALLY worth it !! We used it this past weekend on beef and pork country style ribs.... TOTALLY AWESOME !!!!!!!! During this last smoke session we also threw on some squash and sweet potatoes !! I must say, smoked sweet potatoes are some kind of fine !!!!!!!!!!!! On Sunday we decided to try some smoked burgers !!! Also a success !!! I threw in the makings for salsa and made a batch Monday morning !!! (yummy) Everything so far has turned out wayyyy better than I expected. I have you fine folks to thank as I have already learned lots from you !!!! I am still clueless and have LOTS to learn !! I am very thankful you guys are here !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
