SMF Premier Membership

We are now offering SMF Premier Memberships for those who have asked for this! As always, the forum is absolutely FREE and there is no requirement or expectation, but when you "chip in" it is greatly appreciated.

This forum comes at a cost and we try to offset this with ads and some affiliate links. The premier memberships help to defray the remaining amount.

With a premier membership, you are not only supporting this forum but there are PERKS involved too.

• You get to turn off the Ads
• You can post a link to your website, facebook, etc. in your signature area
• You get a badge on your profile letting everyone know that you "chipped in".
• Notification emails contain the full text

More than anything else, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you are supporting the forum that you love.

Once you get to the "account upgrade" area, you'll see the following (6) options:

1. Almost Free 7-Day Pass $0.01 (the system won't let me make it free so it's 1 cent)
2. 1 month membership for $1.99*
3. 1 year membership for $15*
4. 2 year membership for $25*
5. 3 year membership for $40*
6. Lifetime membership for $100

*The monthly and annual membership types are automatically set up as recurring however, all future payments can easily be canceled just as soon as you purchase. I am always happy to do this for you from my end if you need help with it.

Choose the one that you like and click on the "Purchase" button to go to Paypal where you can use your Paypal account or a credit/debit card (no paypal account or login required) to purchase your account upgrade.

Upgrade Your Membership Now

Once your payment goes through, a badge will appear below your username on every post that says "Premier Member".

Let me know if you have any questions about this.

Just joined. been following Mike for many years & can\t wait to explore what everyone else likes. i am more of a grill guy (i have a 48" Viking (nat gas) on the patio), but i got a Country Smoker table top pellet smoker for father's day and am slowly expanding my skills. just did a 7.5 lb rib roast that was superb, but pulled at 3.5 hrs with center at 125. great for me, but should have stuck it out to 135 to be more pink than red in the dead center.

Joey..
That’s a big grill 48. As far as the rib roast practice makes perfect. Write down your results so that you can refer to the outcome next time..

TulsaJeff Joey, you will like I did learn so much from this site. I was a looker for better than a year before I logged in. The donation I made and became a Premier Member was little gratitude for the knowledge that I have obtained since 2005 or 2006! As said above, use your computer and right down what when and how you did so you can 1st replicate it and 2nd improve on what you will do!

Just to let everyone know, we now have a 7-day pass for only 1 cent. I tried to make it free but the system will only work if I charge something.

So.. for 1 penny, you can surf for a week without ads! At the end of the week, you can upgrade to go ad-free for a month at a time, a year at a time or even lifetime if you so choose.

This is a great way to try it out and if you don't think it was worth a penny, let me know and I'll refund it.

If you do like it, you can upgrade to a full premier membership.

All of this goes to support the forum and is greatly appreciated!

Note: Read the first post above for all of the details, perks, etc.

Nice idea!!

I'm not big on pay to play on discussion boards since the members provide the content in the first place, but I make an exception on this board. The premium is worth paying for. Buy Jeff's rubs, too. They are well worth the price.

So if you do decide to upgrade to one of the premium memberships after the week. Does that penny go towards the cost of the upgrade?
