BBQ Newb from Kentucky

[appaws]

Hey guys and gals. I'm Mike from Taylorsville, Ky. Grew up in Chicago but moved down here in 2009. I was a lawyer but at 40 I changed professions and now I teach history in a public HS.

I recently grabbed a 22inch WSM and a fireboard Drive bundle with the blower fan. Very much a smoking beginner.

Welcome! Congrats on the career change.

Welcome to SMF from Colorado, you have arrived!

my first rig was a WSM with a PartyQ blower controller. Solid set up, you will learn the ways with your WSM! Enjoy!

Welcome from Wisconsin, Mike. You have certainly come to the right place. The folks on this forum are very helpful and there is a wealth of knowledge on BBQ and many other cooking techniques to be had. Glad to have you aboard. Hope we can soon see some pics of your BBQ cooks.

Welcome from Minnesota. This is a great group of people here. You can ask any questions anytime only one a few of us might give you a little crap before giving you all the advice you could ever dream of... and then some. You got a question at 3am, there are people who will probably answer your question.

"Tentative welcome" to SMF from a Cardinals fan...although we did not have much to cheer about last season!
