Helllloooo....I was asked to introduce myself so here I am doing so! I am from the South(Northeast Mississippi). It's hot and humid for the majority of the year. Grew up in a cooking family, restaurants in the family in the past as well. Me and my dad and brothers all love to cook indoors AND outdoors. I've had grills on the back porch as long as I can remember and have had smokers that are pulled behind the family trucks and large enough to run a commercial sized BBQ business, though we just do it for fun! Experience level is probably above-average, but will never know too much about smoking and cooking! Have recently gotten the overwhelming urge to try my hand at air-curing meats. - Thank you for welcoming me into your community!
