Canada_Mike Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 Hi, I'm Michael, aka Canada Mike. This intro might be a tad longer than usual. You see, I was a serious smoker for 20 years, until we downsized to an apartment, and I had to give away my Weber Smokey Mountain. But three years ago I began spending my winters in Ajijic in the state of Jalisco in Mexico. I've now gone out and bought a Kmadao Joe Jr, which, it seems is an Akorn Jr. I wanted a kamado because I want to get back to smoking, but also want to grill. So my little egg is perfect. A few years ago when I was still smoking (grilling, of course, goes without saying,) I was quite active on the TVWBB, and found the folks there highly useful. In facat almost everything I know about smoking is from those folks (and a few books.) I'm sure this group will be every bit as useful. Right now I'm finishing my curing process and can start cooking soon. ckreef, BobE and St1brew 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeperovdeflame Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Welcome Mike, glad to have you and your Akorn with us. In my youth I used to go down to Mexico on diving trips with a friend to a place called Three Sisters Cove, we used to cook the fish we speared over a fire on the beach. Lots of fun.
