New Here from West Seattle

[LongPig]

Hi all. Real name is JD. I suppose I am bi-polar as a griller...A medium BGE and Weber Performer charcoal grill. They each have their purpose. Thanks to this site I graduated to Pitmaster after my twelfth brisket that was finally saved by the faux cambio method. I am still not perfect, so the only advice I give is handing out the URL of Amazing ribs. But if you want Salmon advice I am golden. I have a Masters Degree in science so I appreciate that Amazing Ribs doesn't just exclaim something mystical about cooking that one cannot learn.

Welcome to the Pit! I keep threatening my daughters that I'm going to build a brick pit big enough to do some long pork on if they don't start behaving.

Welcome to the The Pit from a long-time West Seattle resident, but recently transplanted to Des Moines by Saltwater St. Park. Looks like you've got some good gear there to produce some excellent Q.

I see an Egg in that picture. WE're having a discussion o Best Practices over in the Kamado Section of The Pit.

We'd love to see you over there and we'd really like your input. I started out on an XL BGE and had a Med BGE after my XL got Humptied in a move. Welcome!

Welcome to The Pit LongPig /JD! Great to have you here. A couple of great cookers you have there, and yep, they each have their purpose and do it well. Welcome aboard.

Welcome to the Pit! We're glad you're here. 😎 I love the Pacific Northwest. Especially the salmon!! 😀

Welcome LongPig .... Eric here in Maple Valley. We just hit low tide on Alki yesterday. Salmon is a favorite for us as well. My mother-in-law is the daughter of a Ballard fisherman. I don't think there's anything that she and my wife don't know about fish. That left beef and pork for me, so here I am ;-)

Welcome to the Pit, JD!

Welcome LongPig! We're glad you're here. What science do you have a degree in?

[LongPig]

Thanks for the Welcome. Some might argue, but Geology it is. Sedimentary geology with hydrogeology for work. Doing ribs for the 4th...Where did that Idea come from...?

[MBMorgan]

Well this deserves a 2nd welcome from a fellow geoscientist (Geophysics and Structural Geology) ... I suspect there are more of us around here that just aren't admitting to it
