    new to the group

    My name is Trevor. I am from Orlando, FL. I am very new to this type of cooking. I have used a gas grill for years but I love the taste of BBQ and smoked foods. My girlfriend gave me a smoker (Char-Broil) for christmas and I was wondering if anyone would give me any pointers for helping me along.
