Welcome Fred!
We want to keep LTBBQ focused not he things that you identified:
1. Friendly. Nothing matters more than this. I am sure we can all agree there are other places on the internet that are not quite like us, and that is good. It create variety. We just want to remain known as the "Friendliest Forum".
2.Recipes - we nudge one another to post recipes all of the time. If it comes from another source that you know - please give credit where credit is due. If it is your version of a recipes of your origin, or family recipe - it is appropriate to say that as well.
3.Recruitment- We do not actually advertise LTBBQ. We rely on the experiences of our members to encourage them to recruit like-minded folks. We have no biases. If you can cook on a hot rock - or have a $100,000 trailer mounted BBQ rig - we are just excited that you want to share your successes - and mis-fires
So that we can all learn from one another. This reduces dramatically the time needed for a complete new cook to get up to a level of confidence, thus a very positive and fun experience with vastly reduced frustration.
All we ask is that the language and tone be kept "family friendly" and that YOU have FUN......
