Hi everyone,
I am new to BBQing. I'm an avid griller and just never had a smoker nor the the time to learn. I'm in the Navy and completed a tour in Iraq with the Marines last year (medical support, I'm a nurse anesthetist) and now stationed in southern Spain. I grew up in Arkansas, but moved to West Texas (Dalhart, TX) in high school and graduated high school and college there before joining the Navy.
I recently bought a used a NB Bandera from another guy leaving Spain (his loss is my gain!) and look forward to learning to master the beast. No BBQ here in Spain so my friends are also eager for me to start producing some fine BBQ! Several folks had emailed me in response to a post I had put on the Yahoo group page and invited me here. The only real wood I have access to is Oak, no hickory or mesquite here. Our commissary on base does have brisquets, pork shoulders, etc. My first mission is to get the baffle modification done to the Bandera and move on from there. I think you all have a great website and I look forward to learning from the many years of experience here. Thanks.
Michael
