Hello from Minnesota (where most think ketchup is a spice)

[barbqjim]

I'm new to this site and BBQing in general. I've only grilled with gas until a couple months ago. I picked up a Chargriller Pro deluxe with SFB. I have never had as good of steaks, burgers and now pork as with this smoker. I have found a new passion in BBQing. Hopefully I can contribute to this site at least a small portion of what I know it will and already has contributed to my BBQing. Thanks to all.

Are you trying to tell me that ketchup isnt a spice?? Say it aint sooooooo!!

 

[barbqjim]

I'm from Delano.
Thanks for the warm welcome from all.
When I was a kid I thought ketchup was spicy and onions were too hot.
Now the hotter and spicier the better. I didn't know what I was missing. I guess it's all what you are used to.
