HI

[indianagarner]

Hi everyone, I have just ordered my first Smoker/BBQ, I have had a gas BBQ in the past but they dont seem to get the taste of the charcoal and woodchips, so any ideas will be much appreciated, I live in the town called Huddersfield in the UK (dont laugh) and yes we have rubbish weather but we love it, nothing like a good barby with the sun in your face and the rain on your back.

Would like ideas for making my own chips and smoking mediums, say what you want, I have a fantastic sense of humour, if all goes well I may change my name to SmokinJoe Stellabelly, see what happens.

Hiya Indiana how are you doing?  I am just over the hill about 35 minures from you in the Peaks.  There are some fantastic people on here with some great experience.

As smoking has gained popularity in the UK we have been given our own group, UK Smokers. We still come under the watchful eye, and have plenty of support from our american cousins, but somethings are different in the UK and that's where the UK forum comes into it's own.  

We have members from both sides of the pond so it you post a question in the UK Forum, there is a good chance it will get answered from both the UK and the US.

If you click on the following link http://www.smokingmeatforums.com/groups/show/38/uk-smokers  this will take you to the UK section of the forum where you will find a group of like minded individuals in the UK who are into smoking.  

I look forward to seeing you there, and feel free to post on the UK forum.
