    Montgomery County representing!

    Hello all I've been around here for about 10 years, just saw we have a Pennsylvania Group so I had to stroll in and say hi.  I live in Upper Providence and got into smoking also 10 years ago.  My latest crush is my Weber kettle with the vortex.  Good to see PA people enjoying the craft!!
