    Finally graduated to a stick burner, but have lots to learn!

    I've been smoking meat for over a decade now, starting with a firepit and a tripod, moving up to a 30" MES, then a 40" MES before buying a Vision Kamado egg. I've been wanting to get an offset smoker for years now and I finally got an opportunity I couldn't pass up.  It's a 120 gallon (I...

    Howdy from Tampa...

    Hi there, I've been lurking here for 5 months now and I've gained so much useful information that I thought I'd finally register. I did this primarily to say a heartfelt thank you to Jeff and the "regulars" who contribute. I've gained accolades and have been appointed as king of the neighborhood...
