Hello everyone! I'm Richard from Texas. Great site. I've found a lot of great info already. I've done lots of grilling but new to smoking. I'm interested mainly in cooking brisket and ribs. I am in the process of fabricating my smoker at this time so it'll be awhile before I get into it. Any tips, tricks, and techniques would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I recently joined the forum and have been very impressed with the knowledge everyone offers. I'm in a rib fest with friends every year and I plan on winning it this year with everyone's help. I'm looking forward to taking everyone's advice and tweeting my own process. Inhale red.....exhale blue

Richard,
Welcome, from southern Ohio, to the best forum on the internet if you are looking to learn how to BBQ/smoke/brine/cure/inject. Well you get the picture if you can do it to something you put on a plate to eat then someone here has probably done it then smoked it.

Use the search bar at the top of the page and you will be led to the answer to most every question you can think of. If you don't find the answer there then just post it and someone will chime in with their opinion on the subject.

What kind of smoker are you building? Here is a link to the smoker build section of the forum:http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/f/197/smoker-builds
Lots of very good info there for your build.

Always remember the only dumb question is the one you don’t ask!!
Keep Smokin!!!
Wolf
