Looking to the dugout for the steal sign to 2nd base

Overall I'd say I was pretty pleased with the first run today. Baby's turned out real well in regards to texture & taste. We've still got some "gettin' to know each other'n" to accomplish. It'll be a few cooks before I get my feel for the intake air etc. to regulate my temperature on a consistent basis. Today I tried to pull a couple of tricks on her and it didnt work. What kind of tricks? Things like positioning my coals in order of size, layering wood, etc.. But I'm not worried about it......we're just feeling each other out right now. Its like that time back around middle school when you were fooling around with a girl. Your on 1st base with the big sloppy french kiss, but if you want to get to 2nd base you've got to get real creative or do it her way. One way or the other we'll get to 2nd base before too long!
