Just moved back to the east coast, got out of the Navy and went back to UT to get my degree on GI bill and now back in Viriginia where I'm going to teach middle school English. Sold my combo cooker before I left and gave me webber kettle to a buddy and got him converted over to charcoal. Looking forward to getting an actual smoker, (had been smoking in the buddies propane vault) for a bit and started adding smoking chips into the kettle grill. I'll probably go w/ a WSM once I get settled into some new digs.

So far I've smoked sea salt, almonds, macadamias, and some darn fine chicken. Going to use a kettle at a friends to do my first brisket Monday. Hoping to try and use the flat for extra burnt ends.

Welcome, come on in, take your shoes off and sit a spell.
 
Well, you guys sure are a friendly bunch. Used to spend a bit of time on a dodge forum and a computer forum before that, and didn't get this kind of welcome.


...and I would never let match light near my meat.

Here's some macadamia's. One night I was looking at all the smoke pouring out the top and thought why not make use of it. Cooler than inside where some raw almonds were smoking on trays. I also like to smoke sea salt on trays, those little splatter shields to keep bacon grease in the pan, I've got several just for smoking. Pecan is my favorite smoked salt for desserts.
