Many of us have been on here for a while and we have seen the new guys come and go. Some stick with it and improve as they move along and others disappear...
Personally I think we should give some recognition to the guys that JUST STARTED within the last year and are now pumping out some KILLER looking cooks!
What do the others think?

Hi Charlie Happy New Year. If you want my story, Canadian Bacon and i work together and he recommended this site to me saying the guys were terrific and full of help. I've only been here one season. I had a terrific 2010 regarding smoking, grilling, preparing etc....etc....you name it. My point is regarding giving recognition by the old timers.(sorry cant think of another word ) I was quite impressed with the responses i got on my posts. Especially from guys like Canadian Bacon, Whitey, kam, big ron and the list goes on and on. It made a newcomer like me feel right at home and also convincing me, there's no such thing as a stupid question. Again thank you to everybody and the smoke ring and special thanks to SoEzzy for a special favor he did for me, when he didnt have to. Love all of yous. Now enough of the tears and lets get this 2011 cooking year going. _________________ WSM 18.5"

I am all for giving a gold star when it is due! I can admit my first few cooks turned out some awful products. Everyone has to start somewhere and the first timers may give up when they see it is not as easy as it looks. _________________ Big Ron

I've been smoking BBQ for over 15 years and my wife and I were just talking tonight about some of those first dreadful cooks. I don't know why it took me so long to find this site!
I think a tip of the virtual hat to a new comer would be a good thing. What about a newbee throw down of sorts. Just butts or ribs something common but a little virtual comp for those new to smokin?

Before I clear my throat and sing off key I want to thank all the patient people here for guiding me into make so-so Q. My ribs are still a bit tough and often red boned. I still haven't mastered the art of continuous thin stream of blue smoke from my exhaust. I haven't figured out how to glaze my ribs to look pretty and I have no idea of the best way to serve burnt ends. But I keep coming back because there are people here that know and can do all these things AND they're willing to share their knowledge and experience with me.
And I wanted to say thanks!

Though I have owned some form of smoker for 15 or 20 years, I never put out anything resembling as good of Q as I am now...thats not a pat on my own back - thats a pat on each and every one of YOUR backs!
From adjusting my seasonings, learning how to do the temp thing [ ° ] opening my damper all the way - even ripped it off my chargriller! to making smoked shells n cheese and killer pulled pork for 150 at a time - all because of the confidence I gained here! I truly thank you all!
I joined a few "smoking" sites when I first got serious about this addiction, but have no reason to look up their url's - it would be like cheating on my wife....I love you guy's.... ±.....

As others have said, I have gained knowledge by being here. And try to share some of that right back for anyone who needs it.
If I don't know the answer, I will not guess unless it's an educated guess and if I am wrong, I am o.k. with that and don't mind saying I am wrong.
Thanks to all! _________________ Scott V.

I have been on here less than a year, and have benefitted tremendously from the advice on this forum. From learning the 3-2-1 method that I first heard about here, to finding out that the blue Thermapen is the fastest, and getting all the positive comments when I post pics of my cooks, this forum has been nothing but helpful.
Thank you to all you veterans, and no need for any further recognition, IMHO!
Maybe we could all just hold hands and sing "You Raise Me Up".
