Smokin' in North-Central Florida

Hi!
I've enjoyed cooking, inside and outside, for many years. My outdoor cooking has been mainly grilling (except for over a campfire - I was active in scouting for many years) until recently. My older son (an excellent cook) introduced me to smoking/BBQing a few years ago. I've been using (excuse the affront) an electric smoker (Masterbuilt) for the ease of use with good results. But I've known for some time that to make real BBQ I needed to start cooking over charcoal. After reading many articles and reviews on this website I decided that the PBC was very intriguing. After looking at Noah's videos I was sold. I just got the cooker 2 wks ago and have already made the best chicken and ribs I've ever eaten. I found the tips listed in the PBC section on this forum very helpful!
I have also been an avid homebrewer for about 20 yrs. Drinking a homebrew on the patio while watching the smoke leak out the rebar holes in the PBC is a wonderful afternoon!
