Smoking and Grilling in Music City

[alanwest]

My wife got me a Masterbuilt smoker a couple of years ago as a Father's Day gift and I was hooked. I evidently was either good or bad enough in my cooking that a year later she got me a Traeger Texas Elite Grill 34 as another Father's Day gift. I've tried to consume as much information about grilling, smoking and cooking as I can which lead me to this site and Meathead's book and the Pitmaster's Club. So here I am in Nashville, Tennessee, Music City, smoking and grilling and trying to up my skills and learn new things!
