Greetings!

So I live in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA.

I've been making my own jerky for about 13-14 years now, and I'm upgrading to a new dehydrator this week. Also, last summer I got a smoking deal(pun intended) on a combo gas/charcoal grill with an attached gas ring and an attached smoker, so I will be exploring that end of meat smoking as well.

As for me, I like to get out in my Jeep when I can, and I'm a prod father of two stepsons, who have recently graduated from high school, and a 7 year old daughter who continually impresses me with her capacity for learning and her desire to do so.

Welcome from north Idaho. You also have a great Mexican resturant there, the red iguana:)

Hello and welcome to you.

It would be hard for me to decide which one I like

more my Jeep ( '97 Wrangler ) or my smoker.

Not a rock crawler but we have lots of dirt roads

and trails around here.

So where in North Idaho? Lived in Lewiston for a year(Lived down in American Falls, by Pocatello from 6-14, minus that year in Lewiston), and I got to see a lot of the northern part of the state when I was there. The further north you get, the more gorgeous it becomes. :-)

Yeah, I currently just have a '92 Cherokee, which is fun, but not being able to take the doors and top off and not having the footprint of a Matchbox car is noticeable. I had a '92 Wrangler for awhile, but my P.O.S. '77 CJ-5 is the my most favorite. The lift was some homemade job, none of the gauges worked, and I had 5" of play in the steering wheel, but that thing got me anywhere i needed to go, warts and all. :-)
