PBC not for Me

[bbqLuv]

Trying to understand why so many pitmasters like the PBC I googled PBC
Now I am even more confused.

Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC), formerly known as primary biliary cirrhosis, is a chronic liver disease resulting from progressive destruction of the bile ducts in the liver

😛

I believe you may be confusing medical with mechanical.
In this particular case mechanical trumps medical hands down.

TLA Three Letter Acronym: PBR = TLA
I figured that out myself.

[Steak Snake]

When I joined I was trying to figure out what MCS was that seemed to afflict so many here. A quick search brought me to the wiki page for Multiple Chemical Sensitivity which one of the many causes could be smoke. Fortunately with contex clues I figured it out before I put all my gear on Craig's List.
