Hey from Las Vegas, Nevada

[smokinvegasbaby]

Hello all,

I'm new to the "smoking world" so be gentle on me for now :-)   looking forward to reading all of your helpful info for all of us "newbies"  Just purchased my first offset smoker a couple of weeks ago - I am already addicted.  I will be smoking up a storm here in the desert in the weeks to come.  Already driving my neighbors crazy with the smell of smoked meat.  I'm amazed at how many of my neighbors are hanging around my patio whenever they smell smoke!!!!

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 "Terms of Service" notes.....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 Jeff. 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!
