New to the group

[tykenn28]

Hello everyone. I'm new to the group. Been reading the forum for several hours today, and figured I may as well join. My name is Tyler Kennedy, I'm 28 and I live in Indianola Nebraska. (Southwest Nebraska) As far as skill level is concerned I'm mainly a hobby smoker that's never made any money however I've cooked for several parties/gatherings ranging from 10-60 people or so. You'll probably see me popping up in the forums in the next month or two because my brother and I just acquired a 250 gallon propane tank and we will be building a trailer mounted reverse flow smoker. I cant wait to cook for the next party with a REAL smoker and not my small Masterbuilt electric smoker. Looking forward to learning from all the old pros in here.

Welcome to the board, Tyler! There's an Indianola Avenue here in town.

Lol Where are you located? I'm pretty sure our town got it's name from a young indian girl that was killed in a battle close to here. However I know there are several other Indianolas around the country.

Welcome Tyler, I'm sure you will be an asset to this site will enjoy it. You already have a good knowledge of what you're doing from the cooks that you've done. Good luck with your new build. Be sure to post lots of pics as you make progress.

Thanks Joe. I don't know how it took me this long to stumble onto this site. I'm in several facebook pages but after everything I've read on here today, this site seems to be 10 steps ahead of any Facebook page. Nothing against them because there is a lot of useful information out there but I could read for a week on this page about building a smoker and still not get through it all. Can't wait to share pictures/recipes/techniques/ect.
