Greets from Davie, Florida

[KegTed]

Hi Folks

,

My name is Walter and I live in Davie, FL which is just a few miles west of Fort Lauderdale. I'm 71 years old and I retired 7 1/2 years ago. When I was a working man, I worked for Gerdau Steel as a CAD Rebar Detailer. 36 years in that business. Now, I enjoy watching the grass grow and riding my old '78 Triumph T140E motorcycle. I'm the original owner - purchased in Nov 1978.

I just bought a Broil King Keg 4000. I've only had the chance to fire it up a few times to grill a few burgers & sausages. I also have a Broil King Signet 90 Gas grill that's 6 y.o. and needs a few parts to bring it back to life. But, I'm looking forward to some quality cooking on my Keg. A few of the things I'm planning on cooking as soon as I get used to my Keg are a from scratch Pizza and then a brisket, some pork butts and I've always wanted to try a smoked meatloaf.

I'm also the proud owner of a 2013 Hyundai Genesis 5.0 R-Spec Sedan. I call it my Korean Rocketship cause this car is Fast. I bought this awesome car in May 2013 and it still puts a smile on my face every time I open the door and slip in behind the steering wheel.

Welcome to the forum Walter, glad to have you join us and hopefully take part in the other forums. Nice vintage Triumph....

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.
