I am not very experienced with a grill, but have made some great ribs and smoked a pork butt following Meathead's guidance. Looking forward to cooler weather to really fire it up. Just too dang hot here in summer months for me to enjoy it. I am anticipating more delicious meals with the advise of the
knowledgeable folks at the Pitmaster Club.

Fuels Used:
Splits/Chunks, whatever I can get. Usually B&B competition. Favorites are Cherry, Apple, Post Oak, and Hickory.
Pellets, Lumberjack.
Charcoal, whatever is on sale. Currently have a bunch of KBB. Will eventually try B&B. Use whatever lump is on sale in my Ooni.
Propane, Blue Rhino.
Rubs:
Usually make my own riff’s on Memphis Dust and BBBR. Also use Meathead’s commercial rubs and occasionally try something new. I like a couple from Tuffy Stone and Kinder’s. After several surgeries, I’m very sensitive to “spicy” stuff, so I need to be careful about heat levels.
