Hi Everyone. I recently joined and have spent a bit of time browsing the forums (particularly the KBQ post...). I've been using amazingribs.com for a while now and figured it was finally time to become a member. BBBR, MMD, & SG are my go tos.

I run a double barrel smoker that I build 5 or so years ago (I'm a mechanical engineer so a home built smoker was a must, free barrels from work didn't hurt either). The below pic is just before it's first firing. Looks well used now. Run almost exclusively with local apple wood now. Need to check and see if the local orchards have any other fruit woods still.

Plans for a new, larger capacity rig are in the works, but all of the KBQ love is making me second guess building my own. Also contemplating added a Guru to the current rig.
