Hey everyone, I'm happy to be on the forum. I've been lurking for 6 months or more on this forum and used the information on these pages to make my final decision to buy my WSM 18.5. I have been enjoying my WSM very much and still learning from everyone here. Some of you guys crack me up, and I have started to almost hear different voices associated with the different frequent posters. (Yes, voices in my head, let the jokes begin!). I have used my Aussie Bonanza grill successfully for many years but I am really looking forward to using my WSM more. I'm looking to retire in 4 years and I am hoping to make BBQ, Low and Slow, one of my retirement hobbies. In the meantime I have 6 to feed here at home and plenty of opportunity to practice. Maybe its strange to say thank you at the first greeting, but I really do want to say thank you in advance to all the people who give so much good information on this forum and who are so friendly while doing it.
