LanQBBQ Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Hi All, Great sure, been reading plenty and learning a lot. Recently invested in a Kamado Joe Big Joe. Looking to up my game, maybe to see if there are any local ish events that I can mooch around and shoot the breeze with people who actually know how to run a pit....I’m just playing at it right now but i just love it! Keep up the good work and I’ll see what I can contribute. Anyone looking to hook up for beer and meat in the vicinity I’d love to meat others who like the same stuff as me! cheers!

sotv Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Hi lanQBBQ welcome to the forum. I know @Smokin Monkey organises the Northern Tailgate in September @ Holme Valley. i am sure he can give you any info, if that venue is local (ish) to you?

Justin Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 . Looking forward to your adventures, show us your cooks and hopefully you will find lots of helpful people and resources. I have been on the forum since last March 2018 and I have found and continue to find many friends and much help. The tailgates are great fun. I have organised the inaugural spring Anglia and Southeast one for next weekend, and I am going to the Midlands, Northern and National ones through the year. Hope to see you at one of those certainly at least the national one. I learnt lots by going to those including cold smoking and charcuterie. Now I am getting into all grain brewing too, all through the inspiration derived from this forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
