    Got my Christmas present from my wife today. Pit Boss Pro Series 820. I was getting pretty good using a Masterbuilt propane smoker that I picked up cheap when Sears closed down around here. Now I just need some decent weather to try some ribs.

    Kansas City BBQ Tour

    The wife and I have decided to go to Kansas City for the first time to stuff ourselves on some good BBQ. I have heard rave reviews about Joe's (The place with the gas station), but I would like the opinions from the BBQ masters on this forum because I trust the people on here know good food.
