I started smoking ribs, pork shoulder and chicken a few years ago. I bought a vertical Brinkman smoker a few years back but the steel gauge was to thin. I just bought a 22" Weber Smokey mountain cooker and the next day I have off, I will try it out. 
  
Anyway, I just wanted to see how many folk here were into BBQ/smoking?   
  
When I drove to Florida last summer, I stopped at a lot of BBQ places both ways and had tried some good BBQ. I still haven't perfected it, but I watch BBQ pit masters a lot to learn. 
  
I just found one site amazingribs.com to read up on. 
  
Let me know...
