Hello from San Francisco!

[sergrock]

I'm new around these parts but not so much around a BBQ grill. 

My good friend, originally from Tejas, Señor Flookes, sent me this website and i'm thrilled to be joining in on the fun.

My name is Sergio and typically go by Sergio or Serg.  I've been called other things but that might be a story for a different forum.

My wife recently gifted me the Brinkmann Gourmet Electric Smoker & Grill and I think I am in love.  I am new to smoking meat but have been around a BBQ since I was a young lad.

I christened my smoker on New Years Eve.  I decided to smoke 2x 5lbs. pork butts.  1 butt was marinated and the other had a dry rub that was suggested by our friend Flookes. 

The butts went on around 8:30a and came off around 1:30p.

It was a meaty success.

I hope to learn a lot more about the Art of Smokin'.

Thanks.

Sergio,

Welcome to the SMF party.  Always nice to have another NorCal smoker on board.

I suggest you signup for the 5 Day Smoking Basics eCourse on this forum, it's a great place to get your smoking foundation.
