Greetings to all from the wilds of north-west British Columbia, Canada. While I'm new to the forums, I've been an avid follower of Jeff's since I purchased his rib rub and sauce recipes 3 or 4 years ago. Both have become a staple ingredient whenever I'm doing chops, ribs, etc. I have a Big Chief electric smoker, a Char-Grill Pro, and a home-built smoke-house complete with a Bradley smoke generator which I use exclusively for cold-smoking salmon, bacon and hopefully some day, hams. I've been smoking (fish mostly) since I was a teen, but am relatively new smoking meat. Looking forward to talking and exchanging ideas and info with everyone.

Cheers!

George

Howdy, George!

Yep, lot's of folks around here who will give you push down the slippery slope of smokin'.

You live in what I think must be the most beautiful place on the Earth (tho I hear that New Zealand might give some competition).

Yes, it is truly a beautiful place to live, the scenery is spectacular year round. I took the following pic last spring when my father and I went fishing on one of the local lakes:

I've been known to indulge in the occasional glass of porter whilst engaged in the art of smokery

Thanks, sprky. I've been searching and reading  like a demon since I joined, and have found so much useful stuff, I can't keep track. I've even started the long overdue mods to my Char-griller pro with the information I've found here. Great bunch of guys/gals on this board...and smart too!
