    Well I jumped in and started asking questions immediately before finding this area. I want to thank those of you that already have answered questions! Sorry, I don’t know how to add your names to this post.

    I’m from Silvis IL.

    I was a retail meat cutter for Eagle Foods for thirty years. After they closed, I started working for Rock River Arms as a custom 1911 pistol smith for seventeen years and retired last year.

    I’ve been smoking sausage on and off for the last twenty five years. I also smoke briskets and make Canadian bacon.

    My current smoker is a small SmokinTex that I’ve modified to maintain consistent low temps while still producing smoke.

      Thanks to everyone for the warm and encouraging welcomes and comments! I’m a little confused about the purpose of the different team colors. Is it just friendly rivalry?

      marzig20 Yes. It’s a friendly rivalry to see how many people that Jonathan(Blue) and Austin (Orange) can get on their “teams”. It does involve much jabbing the ribs in both directions. Have fun with it. Go team Blue!

                marzig20 yep it is. Team Orange undefined is for Austin and Team Blue undefined is for Jonathon. It is just a lot of fun for ribbing each other!

                        marzig20 Team grey is for non conformist renegades , not pigeonholed into group think.
                        We came into being long after Orang and Blue began
                        We don’t often recruit and blow our own horns because we are…well… non conformist renegades!

                            marzig20 I have to agree with ND Mike ; if your going to play the Switzerland card; Team GRAY (American lang. spelling) or Team GREY (British Spelling ) is the way to go.
