    New guy in Tampa - any local butcher recommendations?

    Just a quick hello from a soon-to-be WSM 22.5 owner in the Tampa area... I have always wanted a WSM and thanks to a very successful year at work (I work in sales for a major scientific supplier) I will be getting a very nice bonus in about 6 weeks. I will be treating myself to a 22.5 and IQ110...
