Blowin' smoke in Knoxville, TN
I enjoyed reading Jerod's sticky because his offset story is similar to how I started 5 years ago. I decided I wanted to learn how to smoke. So naturally, as a beginner, I bought a Char-Griller at Lowe's simply because it looked bad ass. Shortly after destroying some good meat and wasting a bunch of time building baffles and such, I came across this site. And of course the FIRST thing I read was not to buy a cheap offset smoker. Haha. It wasn't long before I bought a WSM 22.5 and, with much help from amazingribs.com, was churning out some damn good BBQ. I've since added a BBQ Guru DigiQ and smoking has never been easier. Today, I smoke more than ever and have never enjoyed it more. I joined the Pitmaster Club because I have recently become more interested in the science of it all. I look forward to learning as much as I can and perfecting my craft.Tags: None
