I'm a complete noob when it comes to smoking and my cooking skills are so bad that I can burn water, but my wife makes up for it. She wanted a better smoker, so I made one from an electric oven by putting a burner in the bottom. So far so good. We started with ribs and we both just smoked our first pork butts today. They're resting right now, so I'm trying to avoid disturbing them.

Welcome to the board! Must be a slow night if it falls upon a Buckeye to greet a Wolverine! Just kidding. Settle in and explore this site, there's a lot to learn.

Wolverine my (pork) butt! Spartan (1981)! :-) Thanks for the kindness all the same. Michigan is not known for great BBQ, but we're getting better.
