I'm sure I probably already said hello from Atkinson, but was curious as to why there hasn't been much activity on this thread...the snow maybe? It's snowing now.

@WeberBlackStoneYoder I never said the smoker hibernates during the winter. Just the people that live here do. :)

Gotcha ya. Where do you get your meat from in Charleston?

 

[Smokinribsbbq]

Either Morgan's in Mattoon, or Windsors meat market. I was told not long ago, someone was finally bringing a butcher shop into town, but I havent seen anything open yet.

Yep I frequent Morgan's or Windsor about once a week. I like Das Schlacht haus right outside of Arthur, but they are a little high on their prices. Great Quality though.

I can have it shipped somehow, but I may go pick it up just because I hear Craig is a cool dude to meet.

Will do.
