Hello from Portlandia
« Reply #-1 on: September 15, 2014, 01:00:39 AM »
Hi folks.  Not sure how much I'll be posting, but I must admit that BBQ is really starting to become a main hobby of mine.  I have always been fascinated with cooking, and in recent years become more focused on BBQ.  My last setup was a webber kettle modified with a smokenator and a BBQ guru PartyQ temperature controller.  I have recently bought a Pit Barrel Cooker (arrives 9/16/14) because I wanted more room to cook and found my last setup to be a bit finicky.  I also just recently bought the iCelcius thermometer and I can't wait to do my first smoke!  Any suggestions as to what I should do first on my PBC?  Thanks for having me, and I hope to make many friends here!!!

Welcome to the forum, from NE Ohio!

Keep us posted on how you're enjoying the PBC once it arrives and you start cooking on it. Oh and try to include a few pics (we live for pics around here). :)

Welcome from Southern California and a fellow proud PBC owner.

And your first cook should be chicken. IMHO that is what the PBC excels in making although everything else is great too ;)

Welcome from NC.  The best chicken wings I have cooked have been from my PBC.
