Hi guys,
Have been cooking on a Weber Smokey Mountain for the past 5 years, and always have a great time when I do. However, nowadays with a small family, I don't have a ton of time to smoke foods as much as I would like. I joined this forum to get some ideas for some quicker, less labor intensive techniques. Alteriormotive is to research some pellet grills with the hopes of convincing the wife it is a worthwhile investment.

Look forward to talking BBQ with all of you!

Welcome from North Carolina  ;D

Suggestion -- before finding a specific pellet cooker, understand what to expect from them.  Here's help:  http://www.letstalkbbq.com/index.php?topic=2641.0

Also, don't be bashful and ask questions when you have them.  Lots of experienced pellet cooker folks here.

Welcome from northern Cali.  Pellet grills are great.  Check out a pit barrel cooker.

Thanks for the welcome and I for about pellet cookers. I've been doing a bunch of research and have pretty much decided on a Mak due to the great reviews and tons of satisfied customers.

Welcome to the forum from Alabama.  MAK grills are one of the best pellet poopers out there :thumbup:

I can attest to that as I've had a MAK 2 Star since last year and love it.  Welcome from Northern Illinios.
