Title: Aloha from Hawaii
Post by: RandyG on May 30, 2016, 11:15:36 PM
Aloha from Hawaii,

Even though I live on a tiny rock in the Pacific I'm originally from SC so I love me some BBQ.
I see there are other folks from HI here, Howzit guys ?
Total rookie but since my tiny Weber rusted out I'm looking forward to upping my game with the knowledge that all of you can provide.
Just bought a Char Broil SRG, great deal on the last one at my local Sam’s club
In my searches I saw that this forum is THE go to place for info on the SRG.
Look forward to participating in the community.

Mahalo,
Randy

Welcome from Kailua where I have an SRG but don't use it often enough anymore to give great advice. Luckily, Tommy (TMB) will be along bum'bye - he's the expert on all things infrared and shares nicely.

You lucked out this time; I'm too busy cleaning up the mess before SWMBO comes home tomorrow to worry about inane comments from some pissant Aggie.

Welcome from VA! 

A new SRG brought me to this forum as well.  Great info here!  It's nice to have so many generous and knowledgeable folks on standby. 

Luckily, Tommy (TMB) will be along bum'bye - he's the expert on all things infrared and shares nicely.

X2 ... pay attention to Tommy's advice, he has lots of experience with the SRG.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone ! I can already tell what a great place this is.
Howzit Ka Honu, I'm not to far from your neck of the woods over here in Hawaii Kai, Looks like the exchanges between you and teesquare will be very entertaining going forward.
I was up until 1 am trying to catch up on my reading here and absorb as much as possible.
Already getting the itch for a smoker, dehydrator, etc, etc. Oh boy, SWMBO is NOT going to be a happy camper, lol.

There are no pictures to even remotely challenge those of tee in his Tide and Sooner fan gear. 'Nuff said.

I've seen tee in his Tide and Sooner gear (the Sooner gear was really cute), but I wonder why we have never seen him in his Aggie gear?

Yep...this is this best all-round place for "news you can use" and for a good time.
I have the original Big Easy, but never made the step up to the SRG.   

Welcome from middle Georgia...

Welcome from Alabama. I have the original The Big Easy infrared and use it a lot. I also have 3 other cookers on my deck. They all have their strengths.
