Howdy! Thanks for the add. I'm new to the forum, but not to smoking. Dad taught my brother and I to smoke briskets as we were growing up in Houston. When he passed,I inherited his New Braunfels offset. I still use it today - and it's nearly 30 years old! But now the smoke goes into the N.C. air, thanks to 20 years in the Marines and a retirement here.
We're fixing to build a smokehouse in our backyard in March. Found y'all while searching designs. Can't wait to get started being a part of SMF!

Be blessed,
Buzzard

Thanks everyone!  I think I'm going to like it here.  I've been taking a test flight around the forums today, and am loving what I'm finding!

By the way, here are a couple pictures from our July 4th smoke.  Brisket and short ribs in the New Braunfels and St Louis style ribs and tritip were in the Old Smokey.  Doing a brisket for New Year's.
