Welcome from north Texas. Enjoy your time here. As they say, to cook great barbecue, you gotta cook a lot of bad barbecue. Enjoy the ride.

Welcome, Rook! It’s great that you’re here, but go a little farther and get Meathead’s book:

https://www.amazon.com/Meathead-Science-Great-Barbecue-Grilling-ebook/dp/B01FX1AUNC/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2YKUS8UR4CQ5I&keywords=meathead+the+science+of+great+barbecue+and+grilling&qid=1651416368&sprefix=Meathead%2Caps%2C170&sr=8-1

There’s tons of great info here at The Pit, but like anything on the internet it can sometimes be hard to find exactly what you want/need. The book gives you all the fundamentals you need in one easily searchable document. Also, it’s free to Kindle Unlimited users! I have both a hard copy and the KU copy, and refer to both quite often. Enjoy!
