Hello from Lancaster, Pennsylvania

[the bard]

Hello everyone!

I've always enjoyed food, so I learned a few things about cooking - mostly by experiment and accident.  :)

Grilled food has long been a favorite and I have loved using charcoal, so recently I picked up a Brinkman charcoal grill that would serve the majority of my needs well.  After its first use (just burgers), I'm pleased, but by no means am I mooning over my new toy.

I'm a fair cook and have some basic knowledge about grilling, marinading and using charcoal but wanted to learn more about preparing really great meat.  Specifically the low and slow stuff I hear people waxing on and on about - this is what I want to learn.

Hence, the new grill and my introduction here.

I'll read and explore the existing threads and welcome any thoughts, advice, and direction.  Thanks in advance.

Matt
