Hey Y'all from Virginia

[outtactrl]

New here.Several years ago I wanted to smoke ribs. I purchased a Brinkman Smoke an Grill but had no idea what to do. That's when I found this site( my saving grace). I struggled with that smoker for three years. Always having to add more coals and wood, refilling the water pan etc... So when the coal pan finally gave out I decided to spend a little more money to get more serious about my smoking. I had always heard lots of good things about the Weber Smokey Mountain which I really liked. However after reading some things here I decided to go with the Pit Barrel Cooker. That was a year ago an I have no complaints. I'm just your average back yard cook that loves to smoke.

Welcome to the pit outtactrl ! I use a WSM myself, got it for Christmas this past year and do like it. I may one day graduate to the PBC for larger cooks, since space is somewhat limited on the WSM. It all makes good smoked Q though.
