Long time lurker, time to introduce myself. My username comes from my photography and soccer hobbies. I used to be great at overcooking burgers, chicken, steaks, anything I was asked to grill. It was a crap shoot at best. Started learning some better techniques(2 zone cooking, getting a meat thermometer), acquired a Weber 18 Gold 6 years ago, added a Smokenator and started producing better food. Last year I gave my old setup to a friend to get him going and picked up a Weber Premium 22 and added a Slow N Sear Plus. Somehow I came across the Pit Barrel Cooker last year and finally bought one this Spring. I'm really enjoying playing with that new toy and the Weber may be feeling a bit neglected. Smoking/grilling have seem to become a bit of therapy for me and I enjoy taking in the wonderful aromas and enjoying a hometown Boulevard Wheat while I cook. My profile pic also shows another passion of mine, fishing. That Walleye is from a fall trip I take to MN in early Nov each year.
Looking forward to learning and contributing my experiences in the forums.

Welcome from Minnesota. November walleye fishing? Brave
Usually the first week. Seems like right around Nov 10 or 11 is when all hell can break lose. We moved to the last week in Oct the last couple of years and are moving it back to first week in Nov. The walleye go nuts loading up for winter and fishing is usually pretty good. As you know, the problem is that winter can often arrive at that time and we always keep and eye on the weather. We had one stretch where we were chased out after 2 days 3 out of 4 years. One year we literally drove up for one day of fishing and got out of town as ice and a foot of snow were coming. It's always an adventure but I look forward to it every year.
