Welcome Dumb old doc

[vandy]

Sounds like you are in for some fun with this addiction! Welcome aboard, the people on this site are the greatest and I am sure you will enjoy interacting with them. Everyone is always eager to help with what ever problem you may run into. Well wishes to you and your wife!

I want to thank you all for the warm messages of welcome and good advices. I have followed your recommendations FireMan and bought the Slow 'n Sear, the Smoke thermometer and a Thermapen. My first ribeye turned out a medium well instead of medium rare because of faulty temperature obtained by my previous Mickey Mouse thermometer. Happy to have joined this marvellous family of grillers.

Thank you very much for the link. I followed your recommendations and bought the Smoke thermometer and Thermapen from Thermoworks, the Slow 'n Sear accessory and Meathead book. Best regards

Bienvenido from Victoria (Texas, that is).

Welcome! Great to have you. Tough to beat a Ribeye steak on the Weber grill! I assure you, you have hours and hours more fun to come in front of that grill.

Thanks for the support.

I am definitely hooked! I have been spending hours on end reading and trying to absorb knowledge about this wonderful hobby which I have already learned is a sweet combination of science and art. I feel like a first grader on his first day of school when I read your comments, Meathead's articles and watch in amazement what you guys accomplish with your grills. I sure have a long way to go! There appears to have no end to the warmth, ingenuity and creativity of "Pit People". I am so grateful and honored to be allowed to be a member of this club of such special people.
