    Howdy from Galveston, Texas!

    I have finally taken the leap and joined...all after lurking for the last couple of years! I have been getting such good advice and great ideas but have been lazy and not signed up. I've even referred several friends! All said, I really enjoy the site and hope to take my smokin' to the next level now! I have 2 x Weber 22" kettles and 1 x 18" Weber kettle. I only use charcoal/wood. Eight years ago, I laid out on paper a dream-smoker. Two years ago, I finally received approvals to start building it (wife was tougher than homeowners)! I finished it at Thanksgiving last year and absolutely love it - though am still figuring out the little details! It is all cinder block and fire brick, has an indirect smoker chamber with 3 grate levels and 20 sq ft of cooking surface; a cold smoker with 2 grates, a sausage hanger and 12.44 sq ft of cooking surface; and a 2 ft x 4 ft charcoal bed direct grill. As I learn how to post pictures, I'll be showing this off with each cook. (I think I was able to load a picture of it in my screen name pic). In any case, I look forward to learning and sharing one of my passions with all of you! Thanks and Gig 'Em!

              I am your neighbor on Tiki Island. Been working on my outdoor entertainment area for almost a year. Framers are on the job site today. Love the area and welcome to the pit.

                    Holy Mackerel does that look good. I'd love to see more pictures of the smoker and read more details on the build process. Just looking at your profile pic it looks amazing!
