Not many of us up here on Long Island, people here think BBQ is frozen burgers on a gas grill. So, obviously I'm from Long Island NY, I used an offset barrel smoker most of my life but last November I got myself a Masterbuilt electric smoker and honestly I think it's better. Great flavor, plenty of smoke, precise temps and easy. I'm also now into aging my own meat with a unit called the steakager, that's what brought me here today, to comment on a post about the steakager and I had to create an account to do so. Anyway, thanks for having me.

Welcome from SC, Mike. It's good to have you here on this great site.

You mentioned frozen burgers. You need to realize that up north BBQ is a verb, down south it's a noun. On the eighth day, God created a pig, and God said, mmmmmm.

Good luck and good smokin', Joe

  Good morning and welcome to the forum, from a muggy, hot day here in East Texas, and the best site on the web. Lots of great people with tons of information on just about  everything.
