About the BBQ Geek
I’m Will. By day I run IT for a couple of real estate companies. By night, weekend, and way too early in the morning, I’m out at the smoker.
The thing that got me hooked wasn’t the meat, it was the problem. Smoking is a science experiment where the variables never sit still: weather, meat, smoker, mood. I wanted to solve it like an engineer would, so I started writing down every cook and building tools to take the guesswork out.
This site is that notebook, cleaned up and shared. Recipes with real numbers, not vibes. Tools like the Brisket Hold Calculator so you can hit your exact serving time. If that sounds like your kind of BBQ, welcome.
