Welcome to the site!!

Hello, from Empire in Odessa TX. I'm really happy to have found this site. I'm pretty much into Carolina style "Q". Pork is more foregiving at this stage of my BBQ game and I prefer it taste wise to beef anyhow. This makes me somewhat a BBQ outcast here in brisket country. I cooked a Boston butt for the 4th of July weekend. The little woman and I invited over a few of our closest brisket loving Texas friend's to partake in some pulled pork sandwiches with Carolina red sauce and cole slaw. Despite initial protests of the crowd as to the smell of the vinegar in the sauce as well as the consistency and the scattered chorus of"YA WANT ME TA DO WHAT WITH THE SLAW!" the end result was a hit. (Even if at first you'd have thought I asked them to divorce their spouse,burn the flag and renounce their faith in God)

Ok I am a complete newbie who is just getting started.  All advice accepted at least once.  First and for most I need to know the best grill-smoker combo for less than $400.  Once again I want to thank all of you in advance

[Steve]

What are you looking for? Gas? Electric? Wood? And, welcome to the forum!!

[ckerr4]

I am looking for a charcoal-wood smoker.  My mother wants to get me a house warming present.  Thank you for your quick response.

[Randy]

Can't go wrong with one of these.

I was referred to this site by Randy from the "pizzmaking.com" forum. I have been making BBQ for many years. These days I'm using a Klose BYC offset log burner which is right next to my wood-burning pizza oven. I enjoy smoking the traditional meats: butts, ribs, briskets, etc. but also get a big kick out of making things pastrami, lox, sausage, and experimenting with all kinds of new flavors.

These days I have been smoking a great deal of pork belly, not just for bacon. Yesterday I made "Smoked Cured and Marinated Pork Belly with a Hoisin-Maltose Glaze" which is adapted from a Barbara Tropp China Moon recipe for pork loin. The slices you see in the picture were eaten in sandwiches made with sesame/scallion flatbread. Yeah, it ain't BBQ, but it sure was good.
