Title: Newbie
Post by: brandivdh on July 31, 2010, 09:15:04 PM
Hey all,

I am a brand new BDS (I hope I did that right!) owner! I have smoked a variety of meats on my BBQ and have decided it is time to step it up a notch!

Unlike most of our friends I (the wife) am the griller.  While I am BBQing my husand is socializing with the other wives and I am hanging with the guys on the patio.

I am really looking forward to "WOW"ing our friends with the new addition and I know that I have found the right place for support and feedback!

I look forward to sharing tips and ideas with all of you!

There is a guy running around the Forum that has a poster that says .....

"No Pics, No Smoke!" So if you smoke it......Show it! We love Food Porn!

Welcome Brandi,

I think you'll find you're not alone as "the wife" griller, although it is a small group. That said you have found a great place for ideas and advice from a friendly bunch of people. So help is but a question away and "yes" we love PICS!  ;D

Welcome Brandi, you will get a lot of this forum (will I have).  Two things that have helped me.  I have asked questions and have keep smoking notes as I have done things.  Have fun and enjoy.

Thanks for the warm welcome and the great links!

I am having camera issues at the moment, but will be sure to post pics of my trials and tribulations once I am able to.

I made some smoked pork back ribs last night and they were delicious.  Today I have some beef jerky in the smoker and it smells wonderful!


Thanks again for the welcome!
