Newbie from Tacoma WA

Hi everybody,

I'm Kevin from Tacoma.  Last year was given a Father's Day gift for both a smoking and grilling class from a school in Seattle.  I took the info I learned from it and started running.

I built myself an UDS (ugly drum smoker) and have loved using it ever since.  As I mentioned earlier, I am fairly new to smoking.  So far I've been able to do several racks of ribs, a pork butt, a meatloaf, and some whole chickens.  My wife and 2 daughters love it when I use the smoker.  My 4 yr old was given the option for her last birthday for either ribs or pulled pork.  Her response was "RIBS!"

I look forward to learning more.  Thanks in advance for the help!

Kevin
