    My first smoke (ever) in a word; difficult

    Smoked my first piece of meat ever last week for the wife's birthday and got my ass handed to me. Spent countless hours studying here, the net and YouTube. Made my own rub from a recipe I found here and tried smoking 2 racks of ribs on my new Weber kettle, using the snake method and 3-2-1. I...

    Hi from Bucks County

    New member from philly burbs (Holland, 18966). Been reading up on smoking on this forum, watching YouTube vids and reading Jeff Phillip’s e-course I found here. Looking for a used 22 WSM, but no luck so far. Checked craigslist, eBay and Facebook market. Excited to find one and get started. Andy
