    Hello From New Hampshire

    Hello Everyone, my name is Dan and I am new to low and slow. I have always wanted to do it, but thought it was too hard. I am not a great cook inside and I would either under or over cook on a gas grill. A friend at work started smoking and told me it was not hard to do. I had a Weber Kettle grill sitting in the back corner of my yard not doing anything, so I thought what the heck, I will give it a try. While I was researching how to turn the weber into a smoker I came across the AmazingRibs site and I have not looked back. I have smoked a turkey, brisket, pork butt, and I just finished a pastrami. Everything came out great and was family approved. I never thought that smoking meats could be so much fun. The only bad thing is that it is getting cold out so it is making it tougher to do. Thanks and hope to meet some new people and get some more knowledge.

    Dan

                Welcome to the Pit! There are guys up north who don't let the weather stop them. Reach out for help. I can keep going pretty easily with my winters and my BGE.

                  Welcome to The Pit TexHampshire! Thanks for your support here. It's great to hear that you've progressed from 'it's too hard' to making great smoked meats! It really is easy once you have solid information. The Slow 'N Sear that DanJohnston949 is telling you about is a great tool, but it's currently not available for an 18" kettle, only the 22" and 26" kettles. If ever you find yourself up-sizing to one of those, you'd love it! Anyway, great to have you here.
