    New member introduction

    Just wanted to introduce myself and give a little background. My name is Scott and I live in Grand Blanc, MI. I joined The Pit to have access to the best information for outdoor cooking. I learned about this site via a user group on fb for Weber Kettle owners. I have (2) 22.5" grills and do an "okay" job with the grilling, but I wanted to step it up to the "amazing" status. I first tried the "Perfect Pulled Pork" recipe from the website and ended up hands down with the best cooked meat that I have ever done !!! That was the "hook" for me, so I bought (2) copies of the book "Meathead" (one for me, one for a gift) because I do like hard print copies (nice quality books btw), and just in case Kim Kardashian breaks the Internet again while I am in the middle of a cook ..... so now I've got a backup. I have since done a spatchcock turkey, which also turned out wonderful, along with some side dish recipes from the site. I have also invested in some digital thermoters and noticed the "yuge" difference in cooking control. Next up for me is the PBC that I saw on the Website and in the book for an annual northern Michigan family gathering that includes 15 very hungry men. I do all of the cooking and the PBC will be the perfect tool for the job, along with the many recipes I plan on perfecting before next year's trek. I am very excited about next summer with the extra knowledge gained from Meathead and company that should "shock and awe " my family members !!! Thanks for sharing such great info and getting the rest of us up to speed.

    Welcome to the Pit, Scott! If/when you pull the trigger on that PBC, you'll never regret it ...

    Welcome to the Pit!!!! the PBC will be a "YUGE" upgrade to your arsenal. You are going to love it. It really is an amazing little cooker with great capacity and almost set and forget cooks to boot.

      Thanks, I really like the idea of not having to watch the meat like a 2 year old that's always running into the street ..... sounds much more laid back for the trip which results in more quality time with everyone.
