Hi my name is Martha and I love grilled food. I have done your very basic grilling burgers, hotdogs, bbq chicken and corn. I am ready to learn some new tricks. I have a new gas grill that is begging me to light it up. I also hope I will learn how to use my smoker that I inherited and out of fear of using charcoal has never been used. So I am hear to learn and would love to hear some ideas for first timer smokers.
