I have been lurking the forums & TVWBB Site for years now, and I finally decided to create an account.
I purchased my first grill when myself and my wife purchased our first home in 2011, a Broil Mate Gasser. Unfortunately (depending on how you look at it) the grill blew over during a windstorm last winter and was damaged beyond repair.
I decided to take the plunge into the world of charcoal! I picked up a Weber 22.5 OTG with a Smokenator. After a few months I decided it was time to upgrade to a larger capacity smoker. After much online research, I narrowed my search down to the 22.5 WSM & the Pit Barrel Cooker.
I went with the PBC and have had much success with this smoker, but in retrospect I think the WSM might have been the better way to go. I really wish I was able to set temp on the PBC, and choke out the fire at the end of a cook.
I hope to continue to learn about great BBQ and to grow my skill set. I also hope to grow my collection of grills (just no one tell my wife). I would like to add a Weber Q320, 22.5 WSM, & Smokey Joe over the next couple of years.
Finally, some pics of my grills and the deliciousness they have helped me create!
My babies.
Some MOINKS.
Rack a ribs & some baked potatoes.
Smoked roast beef w/ baked potatoes, corn on the cob, and asparagus!
