Hello all from Illinois!

February 8, 2022, 10:04 AM

I’m so glad I’ve found this club, I’m new to smoking and grilling with charcoal on an akorn. I’ve already learned so much from different threads on improving my grill and cooks. Thanks everyone for sharing your experience! I’m sure I’ll have more questions!
