Good Advice, Good food, Good people and an occasional cold beer, does it get any better than that?
 
Guess it was when I saw all the replys to other posts. Alot of forums are full of posts but no one replys to anything. Whats up with that?
 
For me it was the discovery that there any many of you out there that share my interest in Q, curing and sausage making. I really didn't think there was that many. Then once signed up and reading, seeing what everyone was doing I found out how much I really didn't know. Smoking has gone from a hobby to a passion.
 
I found this site by surfing the net. Lurked for a little while and could almost feel the sincerity of the forum. I just thought I could smoke/bbq meat. Man have I ever learned alot since then. You people are the reason I keep coming back. Like what was said before; this place is family. THANKS to you all.
 
I bumped this thread up because there have been so many new folks lately... but actually, it's soo much fun to read because of the different reasons and motovations folks have/had...all to get to pretty much the same destination... great smoked foods!
 
I found this forum because my grill ran out of gas, and it had the old style bottle. I decided to build a smoker- with no clue what I was doing really. I read all I could here, and asked questions, and gave me ideas. Built my smoker and been at it since. I stayed because of the help I got and all the nice people here.
 
For me it was how friendly everybody is. And the amount of topics discussed on this forum is unbelieveable. Then the q-views...wow...mouth watering....everyday at work there is a hugh puddle of drool
