They were around before pelletheads.com. I remember seeing them shortly after Larry started the site. A Pellethead member, I think his name was Greg and he went by GB Pellet Cooker? or something. He worked for them and put on the small & unsanctioned, but very fun contest in Wisconsin (cant remember what city) back in 2011. GMG's own Steve "Mountain man" Berry was like the MC, he was a fun guy!
