New member here from SC. I have been curing meats for about 13 years, starting with duck prosciutto and bacon. Was hooked from that point. Been smoking meats for decades, I have an antique green egg from Japan I picked up from the original owner who got it in Japan. I hunt and am looking to start making sausage and going down that rabbit hole. Look forward to conversing and gaining knowledge from members here. Jason
 
Hello from up the road in Charlotte. When I was growing up in the 60's, our next-door neighbor was a pilot with the Air National Guard, and he showed up one day with these giant ceramic grills from the Philippines. It wasn't until 30 or so years later that I put 2 and 2 together that that was the original kamado grill
 
Welcome to SMF from SE GA and you've landed at the best spot on the worldwideweb! I haven't ventured into the sausage making world but it sure sounds interesting.

Yep, I got mine from a guy whose father was in the Air Force and it just sat in their basement for decades. I even had the original briquettes that came with it, they looked like roof shingles. Quite a few places in the world had that kamado thing figured out a long time ago.
