Hello from Northern California

[birdwolf]

Hi All.  Thanks for all of the great information I've already gotten from SMF.com.  I am definitely a newbie.  I've smoked probably 10-15 times, all using a weber kettle.  I just got a smokenator for the weber and have now used it twice.  I've made ribs, brisket, pulled pork, chicken....some good some very bad!  I'm trying to learn each time I smoke and this seems like the place to be.  I'm in the Bay Area of California...about 45 minutes south of San Francisco.  I look forward to reading more.  Thanks again!

to SMF!  We are so glad you joined us! 

We love to see pictures of what you are cooking (or what we call q-views here at SMF).  To "upload the q-views" just follow the directions here and it will be easier. If you are using a cell phone, an IPad or a kindle, go to the main SMF page and click the Mobile button. Will make the uploads a bit faster too.

If you didn't read the "SMF User Guidelines" .....please do.  There are a few things that everyone should know about those pesky little rules before plunging into the forums and some guidelines of how to interact within the forums. Off site links are not allowed here at SMF per TulsaJeff. Not that you have done anything wrong....just a little bit of FYI for new members!

If you need any help roaming around the forums....just holler!  Happy to help out!
