I grew up in Texas grilling BBQ, and eating it! I moved here to Wisconsin in 1992. Never have gotten back to Texas, other than vacations, and I really do miss it.

There are some foods here in Wisconsin I’ve come to love on the grill, like brats, but for the most part, I miss the good ole Texas BBQ, and the great Tex-Mex food.  While living in Texas, I had a reputation for my fajitas! (Yep, it was a good reputation!)

I’ve grilled out for many years, but just recently became addicted to low and slow hot smoking. Every time I smoke, it’s an adventure and a learning, or fine tuning process. Experimenting is the key to finding new and unique recipes and methods.

Here are my current smokers. I started with the trash can smoker. Pretty slick looking, don’t you think? I just recently was given the 18.5 Webber Smokey Mountain, (WSM), by my wife for a birthday present. Who by the way, sure does treat me good. Not sure how I ever got so fortunate.

Great wife and family, and great backyard smoking! What more can a guy ask for?

I hope you all can enjoy my stories, enjoy my recipes, and learn from my cooking stories.

And by the way, feedback is always welcome!
