Hello to New and Old friends on this new site for me,
I started smoking and cooking game and store bought meat over a open camp fire when I was 12 yo. That is how I could get my Dad to take me along on his fishing and hunting trips. He was a good outdoors man, but he couldn't ( or didn't want to ) cook. Things progressed from there from pit to spit to hole in the ground to crank up and down and later the kettle and ppg. I grew older and older, but my love for good "Q" never waned. Yes, I am a addict and I continue to buy smoking toys, and learn from other smokers. I look forward to learn more from the old and new friends on this forum.
