Hello from Minnesota

[mtdew5309]

Hello my fellow BBqers. I have been smoking on a char broil offset for the last 2-3 years. This year I decided to turn it up a notch and join a local BBQ contest. I will be entering in chicken and pulled pork. My plan is to upgrade or get a second smoker so I can enter in ribs and brisket next year. Hopefully I will be able to start doing a little traveling in 1-2 years.

Thanks everyone for the welcomes. Good to see that Minnesota is a good part of the community.

I am using a Char Broil offset smoker. I have done a couple of mods to it such as adding some more temp gauges, I put silicone on the doors to seal it and will be picking up my minion box this Friday.

I am going to do some pork shoulders and chicken thighs this weekend using some pecan wood.
