Most of you are probably wondering where Laveen is. Well if if you take Baseline to 51st Ave you will be right in the middle of the city of Laveen.
I grew up watching mom cook meals in the kitchen and developed a love to cook all kinds of good food. My favorite thing to eat and cook however is barbeque. There is nothing like low and slow cooked meat. Even though I have only been cooking true barbeque (indirect fire) for about 2 years I have fallen in love with the art form. I cook on a WSM, and can't wait to move up to a large offset cooker. Right now I am still mastering cook times, and learning the ins and outs of the WSM, later I will try and deviate from the rubs I have learned. I truly believe that to show someone you care about them is to serve them a good meal, and barbeque is one of the best meals I can think of.
If you have any suggestions for a new guy to the forums I am always willing to try and learn something new.
