Title: Introduction - Shon Barrett
Post by: shonb123 on June 17, 2014, 10:25:20 AM: My name is Shon Barrett. I am a 34 year old family man that lives in Houston, Texas. I just am getting started in the BBQ world and I found your site looking for information. Currently I am building a UDS and am very excited to get it going. I also I recently purchased an Akorn. This Father's Day weekend I smoked my first brisket and baby back ribs. I am looking forward to being an active part of the BBQ community and look forward to being a member of the site.

Several UDS owners & Jaxon is on a mission to master his akorn!
I've had the nest version for 2+ years & just bought the cart version for SIL.

Post by: Jaxon on June 17, 2014, 05:56:05 PM: Welcome Shon - from middle Georgia! Glad to see you here...

I was in Houston last week...it is way yonder bigger than most places I've visited. I visited with IR2DUM, who is a member here. He took me and a friend on the BBQ tour - Luling, Lockhart, etc. What a great time!

I bought an AKORN a couple of weeks ago and I am really gettin' into it. Lost Arrow made me buy one and he has coached me in my beginner stage. I cooked some baby back ribs yesterday for 5 hours at 225* using the snake method with the charcoal. In 5 hours I only used half of the charcoal and wood, so I am glad to have something that cooks so well and so efficiently.

Maybe you can feed me some tips along the way. I'll be watchin' for your posts hoping you include some pictures.
