<p />Hello everyone![p]I spend a lot of time over on the "other" forum, and decided I need to make some acquintances over on this side too. :)[p]I'm Erik Hoover, from NE Ohio, and I cook exclusively on BGE's under the name Cockeye. You'd see why the first time you talk to me in person on account of my whacked out crooked eye. :)[p]I'm mostly a lurker, and will probably lay pretty low and usually only chime in when I have something to add. But I wanted to say Hello and introduce myself properly.[p]I cook a half dozen contests or so a year, so if you see me or my trademark Jolly Roger flying over my trailer, please come over and say hello!

    Cockeye BBQ,
    That is one cool logo you have there. I'm jealous. I go by the handle "Spring Chicken" and I've had some serious problems with my eye lately.[p]Anyway, don't just "lurk" - participate. We value your ideas and comments.[p]Welcome.[p]Spring "Cyclops" Chicken

    Erik,[p]Welcome to the forum. I didn't get a chance to talk with you at Nelsonville but congratulations on your great finish in ribs. I will see you this weekend at the Jack and don't forget to bring both Randy and Mikes new large Eggs with you and don't forget my standard commission of one Milwaukee's Best Light beer for each Egg I sell for you. [p]Dave

    Welcome and thanks for introducing yourself. I hope you can make it to one of the MD or PA contests next year so we can meet in person(my team tends to stick to the mid-atlantic states). [p]Brett

    Cockeye BBQ,
    Welcome--my guess is you will become a frequent "poster" and not just a "lurker". There is no shortage of information or great new ideas surfacing everyday. I too am primarily a lurker but trying to fix that problem. I think I am basically lazy! Hope to see many more of your posts and especially pictures of your successes.

    Thanks for the welcome guys. I know an introduction isn't really necessary for those of you that post on the BBQForum, but I see a lot of new names on this side, so I thought a quick "Who am I" would be ok.[p]Dave - you got it, I was trying to decide which brew to bring to the Jack in my cooler, will have to stray from my usual PBR, but I think I can muster some Milwaukee's Best for ya. And I sure do appreciate the referrals.[p]Doc - thanks, I'll be spending a lot more time reading and learning more tricks for these beloved Eggs. Especially now that fence season is winding down.[p]Everyone else that was nice enough to post, if you will be at the Jack, look for me cooking with another team that I cook with several times a year, "Front Street Smokehouse" from Jersey. Just look for the red and white circus tent and piggy mailbox. If Ol Dave doesn't drink all my MB, I'll surely crack one open and shoot the sh@t with you.
