I am new to smoking but not to grilling. I like consuming info on the science of meat like why brining, dry rub, searing, smoking, etc. The science of the smoke ring is interesting. Understanding enables me to play and tweak.
I use a Weber kettle with a couple techniques including snake and a slow and sear. I like researching gadgets to enhance my cooking like using BBQ Guru to temp control my kettle; I am thinking about building one instead of buying it which is also fun.
I have had moderate success with ribs and pork butt but I have not cracked smoking a brisket which is what lead me to this forum. Yesterday I was able to get a good poke test on my brisket but it fell apart when slicing it; I have smoked 3 now and I am not satisfied with any of them but I am getting better results each time. I am here for tips on BBQ and help with tweaking my technique so I can nail down BBQin' at high altitude.
Next year, I am considering getting a smoker. I also want to get a 26" Weber.
I enjoy BBQ picture on youtube. I enjoy BBQ Pit Boys vids. I am always looking for new material.
And my friends and family love that my hobby is meat. They never say a bad word but I know I can do better. I want to amaze them.
