Hello from Long Island!

[Mornin' Wood]

Hi all. I just realized I never introduced myself, though I've been lurking for a while.

I'm Chuck, and I've been BBQing in my backyard for a while and decided I'd like to meet some of you and give competition a try.

My wife and three little boys are on board, so that's a plus.
I've been using my Performer for years and have more recently acquired a BGE. I like it but it's sure a dog to transport. So...I did what seems natural...I decided I need to build a UDS. Picked up the drums today. Wish me luck!!

Welocme, not sure but either you or your teammate does camping with my brother in law/sister in law Brian and Nicole

I built a UDS, and it's one of my favorite things to cook on. But I've never had an BGE.

Thanks, Sledneck! That's my cousin, also Chuck. I know they were just out camping a week or two ago. My family and I were up in CT checkin' things out at the competition up there. Funny, small world.

How'd your UDS build go? I just finished banging the drums so they're round again. Trying to decide what to do about the (whitish / cream-colored) lining. It seems very...flame-retardant.

Now it makes sense. I cooked the comp in new London ct. My bil told me to keep a lookout for you, then he said chuck was at his campground. Didn't realize it two different guys.
