    Hello Fellow Smokeheads, From Iowa!

    I have been a long time fan of this site, and truly consider it my foundation for this beautiful art. I started studying this site several years ago, and then branched off to do my own thing. Once I came back and saw the opportunity for me to *directly* contribute to this site, I jumped. There is no question that I would not be where I am at, skill or knowledge, without this great resource.

    I am so happy to be here, and looking forward to contributing how I can.

            Welcome to The Pit OmahaVike! I like how you call BBQ "this beautiful art", that's a great way to put it. It's more than just fire smoke meat, there's an art to it like any craft.

            When you get a minute, check out Pit Boss' Welcome & Announcements channel, as well as the tips posts in that channel. These will help you learn your way around The Pit, as well as set up your signature. There's also a post that explains the best way to post nice big pics here... we like to see bragging pictures of your equipment and your cooks. We look forward to hearing more from you! Enjoy!

            Fireboard: The Ultimate Top Of The Line BBQ Thermometer

            Fireboard Labs Product Photo Shoot. Kansas City Commercial Portrait and Wedding Photographers ?Kevin Ashley Photography

            Masterbuilt MPS 340/G ThermoTemp XL Propane Smoker


            This is the first propane smoker with a thermostat, making this baby foolproof. Set ThermoTemp?s dial from 175? to 350?F and the thermostat inside will adjust the burner just like an indoor kitchen oven. All you need to do is add wood to the tray above the burner to start smokin?.

            GrillGrates Take Gas Grills To The Infrared Zone


            GrillGrates(TM) amplify heat, prevent flareups, make flipping foods easier, kill hotspots, flip over to make a fine griddle, and can be easily rmoved from one grill to another. You can even throw wood chips, pellets, or sawdust between the rails and deliver a quick burst of smoke.

            The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy


            The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It is absolutely positively without a doubt the best bargain on a smoker in the world. Period. This baby will cook circles around the cheap offset sideways barrel smokers because temperature control is so much easier.

            Finally, A Great Portable Pellet Smoker


            Green Mountain?s portable Davy Crockett Pellet Smoker is one mean tailgating and picnic machine. But it?s also gaining popularity with people who want to add a small, set it and forget it pellet smoker to their backyard arsenal. And with their WiFi capabilities you can control and monitor Davy Crocket from your smart phone or laptop.

            Heat Resistant Gloves With Extra Long Sleeves Hold The Hot Stuff

            If you?re using oven mitts at the grill, it?s time to trade up. Say hello to these suede welder?s gloves. They?re heat resistant enough to handle hot grill grates, and flexible enough to handle tongs. The extra long sleeves even let you reach deep into the firebox to move hot logs without getting burned.

            The Good-One Is A Superb Grill And A Superb Smoker All In One


            The Good-One Open Range is dramatically different from a traditional offset smoker. By placing the heat source behind and under the smokebox instead of off to the side, Open Range produces even temperature from left to right, something almost impossible to achieve with a standard barrel shaped offset.
