I decided to create a page where you can easily find all of my smoking and grilling related posts.
My site is about doing stuff outside — things I enjoy doing. In my mind, firing up the grill, smoker, or heck, even the fire pit and cooking up some outdoor good eats is just downright relaxing and the things should be!
Interacting with the fire, smelling the wood smoke is something that wakes up my inner caveman. What about you?
