Greetings from Upstate NY

[Solo_Falcon]

Just started smoking with an Oklahoma Joes Longhorn combination grill! Smoked my first ever brisket this past Tuesday and it went very smooth. Can’t wait to do more. I have a pork shoulder and a whole flat iron to work on next.

If you don't mind me asking, where in upstate NY? Originally, we were from Adams Center/Watertown, NY. Born and raised there for 46 years. Moved here in '97/98.

Fassett's Quality Foods

I was born and raised in a family meat and grocery store, living above the store in a quiet country hamlet in way upstate NY - I say 'way' as many think 10 miles outside of NYC is 'upstate'; this was over 300 miles north of NYC. After WW II...

Thank you very much! I’m proud of how it came out especially being my first time. I lurked a few threads on here before I made it and decided to join after how much I enjoyed it.

I had to look that one up. No, I'm several hours southwest of it. Sounds like a pretty good place.

Yeah I’ve never been but it looks super yummy. Look them up on YouTube if you want to at The bearded Butcher.

Welcome from NC (by way of western NY).
Used to know your area like the back of my hand 40 years ago. My first job was inspecting all the non-interstate bridges in 4 Adirondack counties (Saratoga, Warren, Washington, Essex), the initiation of the Federal bridge inspection program, we put the BIN plates on them for the first time. A great 3 season job, not so much in the winter.
