Hello All,
I am making my announcement to this forum. And let me tell you that I have been enjoying this forum for about three months now.
Anyway, as my name indicates I am a Rookie when it comes to smoking. The wife and kids got me a Kingsford Barrel Grill for Christmas, and I am learning to smoke on it as well.
In the last three months or so, I have tried many of the recipe's that the forum members and Jeff have provided. My first crack at it was on New Year's. I just could not wait to get started. Anyway, I got a whole chicken and some Country Style Pork Ribs, grabbed a few cans of Natty Light (well maybe more than a few), and began my quest. Had a party to goto that night with about 12 adults. There is usually enough food at these parties to feed an army, but I wanted to hit the ground running with my new toy.
To make a long story short, there were 5 other couples that night that were taking food home with them, and all the wife and I took home was two empty serving platters and a chicken skeleton.
Since then, I have done some pulled pork, brisket (have not mastered yet), pork shoulder steak (these are awsome if you have not tried yet), pork chops and just last night a pork tenderloin.
I bleed Orange and Black, and love to watch my kids play sports.
Hello to all, and I look forward to hearing from you all in the future.
By the way, I am wanting to get a "TRUE" smoker, so if any one has any suggestions, I am all EARS (literally)
