    New from Queens, NY


    Hi - this is Jonathan from Queens, New York. I've been a member of the Pit for a few years now, but I am just getting up the guts to say hello.

    Hands down, Amazing Ribs is my favorite web site. It got me started cooking with fire and is my go-to reference for all things smoking and grilling. I appreciate Meathead's clear technical writing, thorough research, and dedication to simplicity.

    I started cooking on a Weber Smoky Mountain Boy and have slowly added more smokers to the point where it might be a problem. I have a hand-me-down Big Green Egg, Klose Grill Chef, Pit Barrel, 22" Weber, and a homemade cinder block pit (my favorite). I do most of my cooking at a camp 60 miles north of New York City (near Cornwall, NY).

    We usually cook for a large group of people, and I've come to realize the BBQ isn't really about the food - its about the people and community. BBQ has a special ability to bring all sorts of folks together, and its what I like best about smoking meat.

    I look forward to exchanging ideas and learning from everyone here... still trying to figure out how to nail a brisket!!!

                  Welcome to The Pit tinyboxer! We’re glad you’re here and thanks for the great intro!

                  Since this is your first post, please check out our homework assignment post for new members, it contains a few how-tos and please-dos. This will help you learn your way around so you can get the best experience from our forum.

                  Also, it's very important that you:

                  1. Give us an email address you actually use. You can check the email we have on file for you by clicking your name in the upper-right, then User Settings, then the Notifications tab. You currently cannot change your email on file with us since it’s tied to your Pitmaster Club account as well as our payment processor, Stripe. Don’t worry though, we’d be happy to change it for you. PM (private message) "Huskee" with your email change request, or via email at huskee[at]AmazingRibs[dot]com.

                  2. Add the domain AmazingRibs.com to your email safe list. We NEVER spam! This is important to receive notices about your account, such as if you’re up for renewal or are ever drawn as our monthly Gold Medal Giveaway winner, which is open to all USA members or those with a USA delivery address (we’d hate to have to pick another person because you don’t answer us)!

                  Hope to hear & see more from you!

                            Welcome from Virginia!
                            One thing I can tell you tinyboxer is to check out your Costco or where ever you can find a prime brisket. Prime is the way to go if you can get it.
