Hello from the United Kingdom

[davidbondy]

I discovered Texas BBQ when I lived in Austin about thirty years ago and used to go to Poke-e-Joe's frequently. Since then I've spent a lot of time in Raleigh and discovered NC BBQ but I'm not so keen on the BBQ sauce from that part of the world. On a business trip to Overland Park, KS, I had burnt ends at Jack Stack and they were so delicious!

I've been BBQ'ing myself for years on a Cypriot Foukou rotisserie barbecue. I mainly cook pork souvla in the Greek style but also chicken and even goose over charcoal.

I've recently bought an 18.5" Weber Smokey Mountain. I'm really looking forward to getting stuck in to cooking outdoors for the summer. So far, I have made pork belly burnt ends (Malcolm Reed's recipe) and Meathead's Last Meal Ribs.  All came out absolutely first class.

I have pimped my WSM somewhat and it just gets better and better!

Thanks for reading this and hello again!
