Howdy all,
My name is Rob aka Bugnasty. I live in East Mesa, Az. While living with my father in Wa. I learned a little about smoking instead of grilling. I thought it was very good but never tried it myself. I have since moved back down to Az and started smoking myself. I have this little griller/smoker unit, but have been smoking with it for quite a while now. I love the results and so does my family. At this point, I have smoked a brisket, pork shoulder, and chicken, all were a great success with my family. So much so that my wife wants to bottle the smoke and sell is as a mens cologne... lol. I want to get a bigger smoker soon, and really have fun. I am truly addicted to it now.
Anyways, about myself. I am a young, recently turned 46 yr old male. Been living in Az off and on for about most of those years. I am happily married to a wonderful supportive wife. This being my second marriage, we have one child together. But I have 2 daughters, and the wife has 2 daughters and a son. All but the son and our daughter have moved on. I am a vet of the USAF served 9 years here at Luke AFB. I am now a driver for the largest cab company here in Phx.
I am eager to learn as much as I can about the finer art of BBQing. So send everything you want. I will try most and keep all that really make the tasters go wow. Thanks all.

We CAN help with this addiction. When you can't be smoking, be on here posting, and reading. Every couple of months, I go back to the first few posts on a random page, trying to learn more or just entertain myself--which is easily done! And try to make it to some of the events. This is a great bunch to hang with, even in person!!
I don't make it to enuf events, but I hope that'll change someday!!

For cooking, lower and slower. For spices, mo' hotter, mo' better. Habaneros rule!
