I have been reading virtually every thread every day. I saw a post a while ago saying that a lot of experienced pellet pit owners and cooks seemed to have populated the site. I agree whole heartedly with that assessment. But I also have to comment on how impressed I am at the level of sharing of knowledge that is going on.
People are sharing tips and tricks on how to cook on pits and how to make certain recipes and sharing pics of terrific, fabulous cooks and presentations which could easily be entered in competitions.
I hope that this makes other folks feel free to ask questions about how to do something because I can guarantee that they are going to get wonderful responses from this generous, experienced crowd.

I agree that we'll welcome new pellet pit owners and those who are researching them. I am slightly troubled by our patois in our general comments. We have our familiar jargon and acronyms that will be unfamiliar to someone who found us via an Internet search.
If I write, in my SS FE PG500 I use CYM as a rub base. I pull at 195 IT and FTC, most of us will know what I mean but the casual visitor likely won't.
So here's a plea to be careful with our acronyms and jargon. Keep the newbies in mind.
EDIT: Added another acronym.

Very good point, I remember when I was new to pellet cooking it took me a while to learn the shorthand versions. We also need to post the stuff we have read a thousand times before & have patience like foil or no foil. That is what brings the newbies to the site with a google search.

I also hope folks always feel free to ask. There is so much I don't know and have never been shy on asking. I don't text, so I never know all the capital letters and what they stand for so I just had to start asking. Ignorance is simply the lack of knowledge and asking questions overcomes ignorance.
