I want to thank everyone for your comments and support. I really needed it! In my neighborhood I feel like the lone wolf of BQ. I feel like I am in a twilight zone episode where everyone likes to eats cardboard and dirt and I make BQ and they hate it? hahah I will use the analogies you talked about to spread the word of good BQ. If anything, it is a great hobby and I enjoy it very much. The quality and taste is much better than store bought. Your comments were the inspiration I was looking for. It is good to know others have experienced this and just keep on Q'in. I am more amped to do Q now than before. I will be smoking jerky for the first time in a few weeks and you have all inspired me. If they don't like it they don't have to eat it.
Quick story: The first time I ever grilled on my own was with charcoal in England 1987 while in the military. My British neighbor had a shopping cart in his backyard and would burn all his garbage including plastic milk jugs and styrofoam coolers. You know what that smells like? Sometime after, I fired up a little charcoal grill, he and some others came over and complained about the smell. Can you believe it? I never thought in a million years that anyone would not like the smell of BQ? I guess I love BQ so much I never imagined anyone else not loving it?
