Howdy all! Coming to you from Crown Point, IN via Dequincy, LA. Am new to the site and absolutely love it. I believe I have gained more knowledge and a wider perspective of BBQ since coming onboard. I'm looking forward to learning and growing and conversing with some fellow enthusiasts. My main interest is in smoking meats, I currently have a Vision Grill Series B and just became the proud owner of a Backwoods Smoker G2 Competitor​.
