I did some research on barbecue books and ended up buying "Meathead". I am on a free trial checking things out and so far this looks to be a great place to learn. I recently bought a Weber Spirit II 310 and want to learn how to make great barbecue. Does anybody have an opinion on this grill? Thank you

Cookers:
Oklahoma Joe Offset (older thick steel version!)
Camp Chef Woodwind
OK Joe Bronco
Weber Genesis
Ooni Karu
Weber Kettle
My goal is to eventually have at least one of every style of cooker….. I have work to do. Lol!
Thermometers:
ThermoWorks Thermapen MK4
ThermoWorks Thermapen ONE
ThermoWorks Thermopop
ThermoWorks RFX
ThermoWorks IRK-2 Infrared
Maverick XR-50
TempSpike Plus
Other Gear:
Megaforce 3000 Meat Grinder
Weston 7-pound sausage stuffer
Jerky Gun for making poppers. (Game changer!)
Amaz-N-Tube
Original SnS with drip n griddle
Weber Chimney
Fuels Used:
Splits/Chunks, whatever I can get. Usually B&B competition. Favorites are Cherry, Apple, Post Oak, and Hickory.
Pellets, Lumberjack.
Charcoal, whatever is on sale. Currently have a bunch of KBB. Will eventually try B&B. Use whatever lump is on sale in my Ooni.
Propane, Blue Rhino.
Rubs:
Usually make my own riff’s on Memphis Dust and BBBR. Also use Meathead’s commercial rubs and occasionally try something new. I like a couple from Tuffy Stone and Kinder’s. After several surgeries, I’m very sensitive to “spicy” stuff, so I need to be careful about heat levels.
Welcome from Houston! I don’t have a spirit, but I do have a genesis and will tell you that in my opinion, you can’t go wrong with a Weber gasser! A word of caution, MCS (more cooker syndrome) runs rampant here. I too started with just a gasser, now I have added a Kettle and an Oklahoma Joe offset smoker with eyes on several more cookers. And mine is a mild case.
. Welcome again and enjoy the Pit!

I love the thing. I originally bought it for Spare the Air days and times when I need to fire things up quickly, but I'm finding I can do many things with it...particularly indirect cooking. Still learning to use it, but already eyeballing grill grates and a rotisserie...
