How's it going nh3b's!

This forum is 1st class. I checked out a couple other smoking forums (one in particular, which I won't name), holy cow were they at each other, more fighting than anything. I see the complete opposite here, just friendly and helpful folks enjoying some BBQ.

Good to see someone from our neck of the woods. I was over in Nashua today picking up some ribs for tomorrow (BJ's). I'll get to start them after cleaning up this snow mess we're getting.

I've been in Hudson for about 7yrs, over where the old Benson's animal farm used to be. What are you using for equipment? Really liking the MES.

Welcome to the dark side. There is no going back now.

I am a "newbie" myself and havent modified my posting "page"

I have a charbroil silver offset. I started cooking on a ecb charcoal and didnt like the flavor.....It was probably me. I wish I had learned about this forum a long time ago. I have however had the privlelege of keeping co. with some good BBQ ers in my time and have "observed". Its just now starting to click in, again, thanks to this forum.

As stubborn as it sounds, I like cooking with wood. I enjoy the challenge of trying to control heat and flame. Also I personally think it gives a more authentic flavor.

Thats not to discredit electric by no means. Ive tasted some GREAT meat off electric. I am interested in checking out your MES. Ive read some rave reviews. Im also interested in what they "insulate" with. Ive read an advertisement that they are insulated.
