Hello all!

My name is Brian, I live in Champaign, IL (Go Illini!), and am fairly novice at smoking.  I've spent a good amount of time with a beer in hand waiting on some steaks to finish grilling, but so far have only smoked a few times on a small water smoker.  It's time to move up in the world!

I'll be posting plans for a RF smoker build, and would love any input!

Hello and welcome from East Texas. This is a great site, lots of information and great people that are willing to throw in their two cents worth on about anything.

Welcome to the forum from Quincy. My wife can dance the entire Chief Illiniwek dance, every step, but I guess that is no longer PC. This Redbird will just say howdy.
