...the state, not the cesspit. 
My name is Chris, which is apparently a good name to have around here. I’m originally from Seattle, but thanks to the Army and my later civilian career I’ve lived a few places. I spent five years living in San Antonio before finally coming home to the great Pacific Northwest.
I have been grilling on a Weber kettle for a bunch of years, but I’ve always wanted to try smoking some proper barbecue. I fell madly in love with brisket when I lived in Texas, and replicating that mouth-watering goodness is my eventual goal. I thought about doing a smoking setup with my kettle, but then I learned about the WSM and I was sold. I got an 18-incher as an early Fathers’ Day present and just now fired it up for the first time. I got a dog-eared old copy of Gary Wiviott’s Low & Slow and I figured it’s as good a place as any to start. So, a couple of hours after I write this I might possibly be enjoying some tasty smoked chicken. Wish me luck!
