    My name is Kevin Sanders and I reside in West Plains, Missouri in the middle of the beautiful Ozark hills. I have been grilling for many years learning different techniques from my Air Force brethren until I left the USAF in 1995. I now work for a defense contractor still assisting the military any way that I can.
    I have recently purchased an offset smoker and have mastered a couple of things, but am eager to learn a whole lot more. I actually am getting started late in age at 53, but I find now I have more patience and just love spending the time outdoors and smoking meat. If I can get good enough I am wanting to open a bbq catering business. I have had comments that my pulled pork is the best in West Plains from fellow workers at my job, but I would love to take it to the next level and I think this pitmaster forum can help me accomplish that.
    Thanks for the opportunity to be part of this pitmaster club.

                Welcome Sandman. Sounds like you're just a pup at 53. I'm 57 & a retired high school principal. I'm setting up a bbq and wood fired pizza catering business myself. Sounds like we are both driven by the same force, those we feed telling us how good our food is

                  The Pit Barrel Cooker May Be Too Easy


                  The PBC has a rabid cult following for good reason. It’s among the best bargains for a smoker in the world.
