    Hello from Milwaukee!

    Hey everyone!  Finally decided to make an account here after lurking for quite some time.  I've been attempting to make some tasty treats on a hand me down brinkmann smoke n grill.  That thing led to quite a bit of cursing and frustration on my part.  My wife finally got sick of me whining about...
