Toto is in the house...

Hello fellow smokers, Let me tell you a little about myself. My name is Tony, my family and friends call me Toto, I'm 46 and live in Virginia Beach, Va. I love cooking, grilling and now smoking meat. I'm a newbie to smoking meat. I have successfully smoked my first pork butt and shoulder about a month ago. What i mean by successful, is how quick it got eaten up..lol

I love getting together with my family and friends and having a big shindig cookout and enjoying every ones company along with good food.

Last weekend i smoked a pork butt, pork shoulder and 3 racks of baby back ribs and they were the best ribs i have ever eaten. you should have seen the faces on all my buds when they started tearing into the ribs and BBQ. Priceless!!!

I admit, I am now hooked on smoking meat, lately all i have been thinking about is what can i smoke next..lol

I don't have a smoker yet but i am in the market for one. I have been borrowing one from a GOOD friend. It is a Newbraunfels upright smoker with a smoke/fire box attached to the side. He has converted it to use propane.

If you have any recommendations regarding smokers, or anything that will inhance the experience of smoking meat, please feel free to send them on.

I will post some picture of my first go at smoking the pork butts and shoulders.
