Hello everyone. A new member from the BBQ hinterlands of SE Massachusetts. I've been living in this area for the last dozen or so years and have yet to find a really good place to get Q anywhere near here. There are a few good BBQ joints in MA but I'm seldom in the mood, or have the available free time, to drive an hour or more to get to them. So, a couple years ago I bought cheap offset smoker and started torturing my friends and family with some truly bad barbecue. Over time, and lots of trial and error, I actually started making some edible, if not particularly memorable, meals. Yesterday my Wife presented me with a WSM 22.5 as a Fathers Day present. Man did I ever marry right. Anyway I got it unpacked and set up yesterday. I've run it up to temp and cleaned out the packing goo so I'm ready to go today. Going to start simple. Some ribs, chicken breasts and thighs. Wish me luck!
