You are most welcome and deserving, Kathy! Now, after your official dub by the Grand Knight would how would you prefer to be addressed? Lady Kathy, Lady Kathleen, Lady Kathryn, ......?

And BTW! In this venue "Lady" is equal to "Sir" as we pay respect and celebrate the difference! We are all Knights of the Thin Blue Smoke!
Cheers!
Monty

Congrats on your new found nobility! Now you have to practice looking down your nose and finding kegs... er tankards of ale... I'm still looking for mine!:)

 

[cajunsmoker]

Congrats Lady Kathy,

I am also impressed that you wouldn't give up and kept on smoking.

It always impresses me when someone converts or builds their own rig just so they can smoke.

I think you will be a welcome addition to the order.

 

[smokemom]

I have spent all morning trying to figure out how to send pictures of my smoker and the brisket and so far i keep coming up empty! any suggestions, guidance,counsel, intstructions are most welcome!

Okay, okay, I saw the nomination!!! You know, when a feller goes and gets promoted to a stupi... er I mean a SUPERvisor he is expected to do some work or make it look like he doing some work! :mrgreen: Besides I just switched to broadband and have been setting up my laptop on a wireless network (my kids are now calling me a 50 year old geek :roll: and my knees are too old to keep running up and down the stairs to use the wired 'puter).

To the business at hand-that being the nomination of Kathy (aka smokemom) into the Order of the Thin Blue Smoke; Kathy, having been nominated by Sir Monty and duly seconded by JoeD617 and having the wherewithal and mettle (and metal) to construct your own smoker I welcome you Lady Kathy into the Order of the Thin Blue Smoke.

Congrats, Lady K! I patiently await my appointment, which I shall requisition Dutch for after, and only after I conquer (in my mind) what I consider the "Big Boys"; Brisket, Pork Ribs, Pork Shoulder. I've done the brisket and shoulder. Both turned out well, but not quite worthy. Tomorrow I attempt the ribs, spares. Then it's back to brisket and shoulder. Enough of me, congrats on the appointment.
