This place has ruined me my wife says

Since most of my life has been building/making things. My wife knows I am always in the planning stages of building a new improved smoker/grill ( also making new fishing stuff or modifying my boat). Just takes them awhile to get used to it and accept it. She knows, so far the food either keeps getting better and better with each build or mod or makes life for me easier. She just doesn't like them all sitting around, that's why I have 3 out on loan. :mrgreen: That part she doesn't get, having so many smokers. Also, when we both retire and move, there will be a 60X120 barn ( or close to that size) for all my stuff and shop area.:twitch:
Welcome to the addiction and I do mean addiction.
 
The thing my wife likes best about the whole thing is she doesn't have to cook as often because I am always experimenting. Oh yeah she also likes the food too
 
Patience, now my wife wants me to build another drum, says turkey was better on the drum.

You just getting started, but the addiction is solid!
 
Just hang in there. It will get worse if you play your cards right:grin:
 
My wife is tired of me running to the charcoal section to see the price of Kingsford Bluebag every time we walk in a store. She has already accepted the half hour plus I spend in the meat section. It will get worse.....enjoy. :wink:
 
I cant walk around my work without seeing a smoker here, a pizza oven there, and a UDS in the corner. Already made a UDS from work leftovers, a cold smoker box w trays for smoking malt and a Vortex for the Weber. Then there is a big Safe that no one has the keys or combination to (its open). Eventually she will be an off set vertical! My friend told me, "You want to turn everything into a smoker!" Of course he also sees no problem with that.
 
Addiction for real. But my wife has backed off since I quit brewing beer and playing in bands too. I used to come home and go straight to work on one of the three every night after coming home from work. Well, you can see which one I haven't given up on!
 
Mine didnt have a problem with it at first. Then I slowly started acquiring more "toys" then she got a lil grumpy. But in the end she likes the food and realizes my hobby/addiction could be worse!

Yep, first it's not being able to walk by a drum without visualizing it as a smoker but eventually it progresses to trash dumpsters, the trunks of cars and farm implements sitting in the middle of cow pastures! Really, nothing that's made out of steel is safe!LOL!!!:-D
 
Wasn't sure where "ruined" was heading. This with a BC powder will get you thru until such time as your significant other is not only on board but wanting to drive
