i'm happy to be here
« Reply #-1 on: October 15, 2012, 12:19:21 PM »
ok, probably to much espresso but who cares.  i was just cruising the forum and am amazed at how many great ppl we have here.  alot of great bbq ppl who are full of knowledge.  what i like the most is that everyone cooks differently.  the benefit to me is i am learning a bunch of bbq stuff.  i'm a way better cook than i us to be.  i actually sell my bbq food.  i like that the ppl from the east coast cook differently that the ppl in the mid west compared to the ppl on the west coast.  different spices and different cuts of protein from all over.  alot of ppl cooking on alot of different pits.  that part is very cool.  i also like that no one is trying to sell me stuff.  its very mellow here.  just bbqing.  i just want to say thanks to T for creating a good forum.  i also want to thank art for inviting me here.   8)

Well said Sparky!

The more I come to this forum, the more I like it! There is always something interesting going on someone's grill or smoker.

Oh one more thing. Some forums scare the sh#t out of me if I post something that breaks some rule of the forum. Never happened to me personally, but I have read the aftermath.  Ouch.

Ditto, Sometimes I have to alter a thread when I'm going to post it at the other forum.  ;)  I know others will do it also. This one is the first one I come to in the morning.

MY KIDS WILL ONLY EAT RIBS THAT ARE MADE WITH HONEY, BROWN SUGAR AND BUTTER THEN GLAZED WITH THEIR FAVORIE SAUCE MIXED WITH THE MENTIONED INGREDIENTS. Thanks to Mr. Sparky. Oh, and only when they come out of my pellet pooper.  :o 8)  They are 13 and 10 now.

I made a mistake posting something in the Humor thread a while ago here. I got the feeling from a couple of responses that I shouldn't have done that post. I killed the posting. Made a public apology where the post used to be and all has been forgotten/forgiven. Just shows the quality of the people we got here.  :)
