New to smoking in OKC

[new2smoke13]

Hi everyone! Im 21 years old, work as a hydraulic/ pneumatic technician in OKC, and I love food :drool. I purchased the weber 22.5" gold a few weeks ago and I love it! Direct heat Grilling on it is a breeze, smoking is going to take a little practice though lol I smoked bacon wrapped hot dogs the other night to see how much of a challenge it was going to be to control the temp and It wasn't hard at all. Smoking my first rack of pork spare ribs tomorrow and I can't wait!

Welcome to SMF and sounds like you are off and running! Post your rib cook in the pork forum when you do it and and post some pics of your smoker and food as you prep etc. We love pics here at SMF. 

Also, in your profile, add your location so we all know where you're from! (OKC is OK City, but if you post it in your profile, it shows on every post!)
