I'm from Chapel Hill and an avid UNC Tar Heel fan. It's been a good weekend for anyone whose favorite color is Carolina Blue. Yesterday, the football team scored 80 points and had their 5th straight win after a 1-5 start. Today, the Heels, who were beaten by Belmont eaqrlier this week(can you believe that) beat #3 Louisville. Enough about sports...this is a cooking forum. I have been a casual backyard cook over the years using a gas grill and a Weber kettle charcoal grill. About 10 years ago I started frying a turkey at Thanksgiving. A week ago, I bought the Char Broil Big Easy because I was tired of the mess and expense of the oil turkey fryer and have spent a lot of time this week reading the forums. I was referred to this site by TMB. After realizing that TBE can be used for more than just cooking chicken or turkey, I am sure it will be used much more than just once a year, which is what happened with the fryer. I look forward to being an active participant.
