Hello. I'm new here and looking to up my grilling and smoking game from greenhorn status to master. I've been wanting a smoker for years and after spending hours on this website drooling over recipes and reading about the science behind making good food, I pulled the trigger and ordered a Rectec Stampede that should be arriving next June. Needless to say I'm pumped about this new adventure. The time I've spent on this website reading articles and reviews has been educational and I'm hoping to continue learning and maybe even, one day, contribute to the group.
I look forward to chatting with y'all down the road.
