Hello,
and glad to MEAT everyone. I'm Shannon from Fitzgerald Ga, it's in deep south ga, so we can pretty much build as big a fire as we want.
I work in an industrail plant all day so getting out for a 4 hour cookout with just me and my grill is an extreme pleasure. I have a home built wood burner on thats built to be very mobile, not exactly on a trailer, kinda more the trailer is more built into the grill. It's an old 4.6' water softner ( all metal no galv) with a split torque axial. 8" pipe from the fire box to a 3" draft pipe. Built very close to a lang but with a few changes that I didn't like on the lang. And one great side dish around here is while the meat is smoking you place pecans on the firebox and roast them for 2-3 minutes and you have roasted pecans! I use mostly pecan, redoak woods. I have some pear tree I think I wanna try to see what it will do.
Level of cooking spert..slightly above begginer. Had to wait several years to get this built! Been a BBQer all my life, now wanna do some smoking.
About me.. I'm a 42 year old granddad of 3. Calibration tech for an aerospace company and I love to do photography and cook on a smoker.I also am a dieabetic so I tend to drop a lot of the sugars and make healthy meals for me and the kids. Looking forward to reading and learning from ya'll ( yes I have a real southren slooooww drawl).
