      Some can’t smoke a piece of meat on anything other than what they use at work. Put them on a UDS or WSM and they would ruin it.

    I used to think Texan's were overconfident on their BBQ, but then I went to Texas, specifically Terry Blacks, and then I understand. In other parts, BBQ is a delicacy. In Texas, BBQ is a religion. It's just not the same.
