Welcome Lee. Always good to see a fellow North Carolinian here :)

Appreciate the link. Exactly what I need. R/Hank

Thanks for the heads up. I hit Food Lion yesterday and bought two Boston's. Wife is kicking my butt for buying everything for the WSM but doesn't argue about the finished product. Go figure! Have had a few neighbors ask what that bullet looking thing is on my deck. One wants me to do ribs for...

Looks awesome. Love the grilled onions

I purchased, some Cherry wood. All I could find. Was thinking 3 fist sized chunks. I'll go easy with the smoke and hard on the home brew. Don: I said purchased... :)

Don is correct. I picked it up and ran like hell! Good thing the serial numbers on these are only two letters!

Beer can chicken for this weekend. Got a couple of 7lb ones that should work. Never done chicken before so it should be interesting. R/H
