After receiving an email about Meathead's new book I decided to take a look at the Amazing Ribs site. Joined that very day. While I've been BBQing for many years I'm coming to see that I have an awful lot to learn. I've got a Weber 22" kettle, a Broil King 440 gas, and a Cookshack Smokette smoker. My plan is to become as proficient with my Weber as I possibly can. Just ordered a Slow 'n Sear Plus and can't wait for it to arrive. AR is a terrific resource . . . and a lot of fun. I'm retired and no one can say there's nothing to keep me occupied.

New Member and excited to have joined. I've got a Weber 22" kettle, a Broil King 440, and a Cookshack Smokette Original Model SM009-2. Been into BBQ for many years but apparently I've got an awful lot to learn. My current main interest in becoming more proficient in using my Weber kettle. Just ordered a Slow 'n Sear Plus and am awaiting delivery. Woo-hoo! I'm retired and presently living in Northern Virginia. Plans to move on south in mid-2018. I'm finding AR to be a terrific resource. And a fun one to boot.

Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.

Welcome to the Pit bchbum12 ... What beach are you bumming on? I'm in Hermosa Beach.👍
"An awful lot to learn".😆 I think most of us that discover AR later in life are humbled by the methods, techniques and myths that we learn from Meathead. Just think if you had a Thermapen available 30 years ago and knew when your steaks were rare, medium rare or ruined.😁

Hey there, Breadhead. Thanks for the welcome. Actually, I'm only on a beach in my mind. I retired from the Federal government in 2012 and still find myself in Northern VA. My plan has always been to retire to at least somewhere near the water and that plan still has life. Have to get two sons through college (almost there) and then my wife and I are off to points south.
