    Newby from SC

    I've been playing around with a Professional Char-Griller with a side pot for several years. Finally wore out the last one and got another. As I write I am smoking a 9 lb USDA Choice Angus Brisket flat with mesquite. I have posted some of my stuff on fb but did not know about your web site. I'm...
