My name is James but people call me Jimmi. 31 years old and live in Kentucky. I am a newborn charcoal smoker. Last year around Christmas my family decided to smoke out the dinner. We had ribs, sausage, and chicken all smoked. When that meat hit my mouth that was it! I did nothing but look up smokers until my wife got me one. She got a Master Forge charcoal smoker. It's a medium size standing smoker. I can get enough meat on it to last us through the week and my wife doesn't complain about those left overs :D So far I have smoked out a 4.5 lb (Trimmed) Brisket, Whole Frier chicken, Chicken thighs, and Corn on the cob. I've been a grill man for a few years but what you get off a smoker is so much better! Been researching around a lot about rubs, sauces, and best smoking methods. Also, I want to branch out a bit more on different meats and smoking methods others use to make a great cookout. I'll be sure to post some pictures of my success Take care and have a great holiday weekend!
