Hi, John here, new to the forum, not so much smoking. I am 55 year old life long small town Oregonian. I have had different styles, sizes, fuels, type smokers. Started a new lifestyle, divorced and living in a fifthwheel and love my mini WSM about 8 months into it. Love to learn and improve. My major motivation is to impress my daughter and friends with culinary delights. I tend to be conservitive with rubs and spices using mostly Webber smokey mesquite and dry smoking rub. Where most recommend olive oil or apple juice to coat, I like cranberry juice. Works for ribs, butts and beef roasts.I am reluctant but open to new rubs. My most recent improvement was a Maverick ET733 remote thermometer. Made a perfect rare pecan smoked prime rib with smoked lobster tails for my daughter and best friend last night. Should have taken pictures. My daughter calls me a cooking nerd. Looking forward to getting to know people here.

Oh yeah, I have a Lodge sportsman grill, any other fans? Great combo!
