    Hello from Vancouver BC

    Hi Everyone,

    I actually subscribed a few months ago but haven't had the time to check out the forums. I have used so much information from this site that I felt obligated to contribute financially

    I've only really started getting serious about smoking and grilling the last couple years. Before that I was always a big BBQer but now its at a whole new level.

    My favourite grill is the Weber 26" kettle with a smokenator. I also have a small Weber Q200 for camping trips and if i'm feeling really lazy and need to grill something up quick for dinner.

    I also just bought a Traeger pellet smoker and did my first beef brisket a few weeks ago. I'll post a full description on how that went in another thread.

    I have smoked pork, chicken, beef, fish, veggies, anything I can get my hands on

    Excited to participate in the community here and hope to be pretty active. I love food, have also ran some food booths at the 2010 winter olympics in vancouver and various festivals. Never barbecue yet, this is just a hobby that i'm trying to perfect. I work for a software company so food is more of a hobby and a passion then a job.

          Mp3gus welcome! Yes, you will be hooked too if not already. How do you like the new Traeger?

            HouseHomey My first cook was a cheaper cut of back ribs, it dried up and didn't turn out so well. but I did a brisket after that which was amazing.

            Learning the characteristics of it right now but am very happy so far. Its nice to have a smoker where I don't have to worry about watching the temp and refilling fuel. It doesn't have quite the same smokiness as the Weber Kettle though. I find pellet smoke doesn't penetrate as well as wood chunks right on charcoal.
