Hello from NOVA

[checkairspeed]

Hello all! Just joined the pit after lurking for several weeks. I have decided to try and become a BBQr with the purchase of a pellet grill. I haven't grilled in years, but would really enjoy being able to smoke a brisket, etc. Haven't purchased a grill yet, but have pretty much decided on the RecTec mini. I have several questions I will post in the appropriate areas. I look forward to tapping the wealth of knowledge here! TIA.

In th' SNJ, "Gear, 3 green, down, an' locked!"

Welcome from Texas!

bten,
Thanx. Feel free to pass any Texas brisket tips. I've got folks from San Antonio to impress!

[bten]

Texans really like dark bark and smoke rings. Use the information you find on the forum for brisket. I am not an expert on brisket yet.
