Checking in from Atlanta, Georgia

[GrillBillVol3]

Hello, guys and gals. Just a young buck down here in Atlanta checking in. I've been wandering around on the boards "shigging" tips and recipes. I thought I might as well introduce myself.

I started out with an ECB (El Cheapo Brinkmann), then moved on to the Pit Barrel Cooker. Decided to throw "all" the way in back in May for an A1 Competition Smoker from Custom Pits here in Georgia.

I live and love the life of smoke and have become extremely addicted. My girlfriend loses a lot of quality time on weekends to my smoke "habit". But hey, she gets to eat very well. After all, isn't life all about give and take? lol

Anyway, this is my little introduction to the board. Hope to keep learning new tips and recipes from all the vets on here.

Welcome to the forum GrillBillVol3, glad to have you join us and hopefully take part in the other forums.

We don't have a lot of rules here other than spam and advertising are not permitted, the rest is just common sense, courtesy, and mutual respect for one another.

You'll find a great group of people here with a willingness to help and guide you, regardless of of how simple or how complicated you think your question may be. You'll also find that there are many ways to achieve great food, there is no single "cookie cutter" method as some have been conditioned to think. You'll just have to try a few different methods and soon you'll master the way that works best for you.

We'll be here to guide you and answer your questions as you begin your journey into smoking and BBQ. Pretty soon you'll go from asking questions to posting pictures of your progress, and we will all share in your experience as true Brethren.


We have many different forums here.... Below are just a few of them.

For discussion on BBQ/Smoking related topics, we have the "Q-Talk" Forum. This is a good starting point for all new Brethren.

For those who are interested in competing, We have a "Competition BBQ" forum.

We also have a "Catering, Food Handling and Awareness" and "Catering, Vending and Cooking For The Masses".

We also have a trading forum where members can trade sauces and rubs available from different areas around our country.

For general non BBQ related talk we also have "The Wood Pile" forum.


I hope to see you in the "Q-Talk" forum soon. You'll find help on almost every topic from cooking your first Pork Butt to curing and smoking your own ham and bacon.

If you can't find the topic you need help with, or have questions about a specific topic, just start a new thread in the related forum.

There are many members with years of experience that are willing to answer your questions and share their knowledge to guide you in the right direction. Collectively there is a wealth of experience and knowledge among the membership, including you. Don't be afraid to jump in there and share your knowledge and your experiences as well.

Thanks everyone. I've come to know the forum pretty well, as I've been quietly sneaking around just taking in the information and the pron. I definitely feel like this is the best site out there for the BBQ enthusiast!

Welcome to the forum, about 3 hours (depending on traffic) down the big road from you. Good to have a fellow Georgia Shigger on the board to help me with all these crazy Farkers.
