Hello all,
I'm a new member but have been lurking for months. The hints are great here and my BBQ diary is getting big enough to refer back to it for those special what "would I do next times". I raised three kids starting with camping on a smokey Joe and a Weber Kettle at home. Graduated to a gas Weber 18 years ago when I lived in Vermont so i could shovel off the back porch and cook all year long! I finally just donated it to my Marina as it still works great after I built an outdoor kitchen with a Lynx, side burners, Beer cooler and sink. Now that I have a TV on the lanai, I live outside (sorry folks up North but I did my time).
I've smoked some great Ribs and PB on the grill but used a lot of gas for 4-6 hour burns and had to rig a foil vent over the big opening in the cover to hold the smoke and heat (I know, its a no-no I'm bad). I'm Moving back into a charcoal smoker now as I am on my second round of home made corned beef a la AmazingRibs.com . First time made two awesome boiled dinners and now I want to go the rest of the way and smoke it. The Tiki bar was built by a retired Busch Gardens artist. the front is really special.
I'm a scuba diver and spearfish when I can, ride a motorcycle (a red Ducati is where my signature comes from) and sail. I'm still working, travel a lot, but enjoy the heck out of my job with Pyrotechnic Valves (yep, you heard it right!), U.S. Navy stuff and everything from Submarines to Satellites. I like it as I am former Navy vet. Cheers.
