Hello everyone. I'm very glad to say that I am now a member of the PitMasters club. I am new to barbequing. I just recently purchased a combo smoker/gas grill from Oklahoma Joe's. So far so good. The weekend after the 4th of July, I smoked a 20lb Pork shoulder and 2 6lb chickens. Everyone commented very favorably on how everything was very delicious. I intend to work on my skills over the winter. In the coming year I will be purchasing 3 barrel smokers and a tank smoker, I am not sure which smoker yet. In closing, I look forward to 2025 any competing.
