Hi! I have been hanging around here absorbing as much information as possible for a while now. I figured it was about time I acted neighborly and said hello. I have had my WSM 18.5" for 3 years now. I have cooked up pork butts, briskets, beef ribs, pork ribs, and chicken. I am making pastrami for the first time today and I can't wait to try it! I think I will be doing a practice turkey next -- I always wanted to try smoked turkey for Thanksgiving.

P.S. Go Vikings against the Steelers today!

Welcome Paul. Bummer about the Vikes
I did this turkey last year, it came out great, and was super easy.

Hey Paul, welcome to the forum. How did that pastrami turn out? Let us know.

Thanks.

The pastrami was good. I need to leave myself a little more time for the cook next time though. I will definitely be trying it again.
