Hi Ron and welcome to the forum - I live just a bit south of you on Oakland Bay on a golf course. I think you are going to love your WSM my friend. One of the great things about it is the ability to set it and forget it. Once you get used to it you can acutally use it like an outdoor oven with the ability to adjust and add flavors with smoke wood, of course rubs, brines etc. Cruise through Cooking topics on the home page here and you will find some easy and very tasty recipes and techniques there. The best to you and again welcome. Bob B
