If it's been a while since you've logged in to the Pitmaster Club, you may not have yet seen our new sleek design!
In addition to expanding the
Recent Posts
options which we highlighted in last month's issue of this newsletter, we've removed the top run of 'Products We Love' and limited it to the sidebar to clean up & streamline your screen, we've changed the masthead logo to an eye-catching (and apropos) giant rib, and we've clarified for newer members how to get to the forum channels in the Pitmaster Club vs. how to get to the free side of AmazingRibs.com with larger text and clear separation. We've also streamlined our menu tabs. These changes were made on both desktop and mobile browsers!

marvinpotter
was on that rib train this month! What a perfect example of rib meat pulling back from the bone; a sure sign that these were some tender ribs. Great looking cook!

fired up the Santa Maria grill for some steak and veggies. Check out that searing action-feed the flame! Not to mention that beautiful wall to wall, medium-rare color!

This is what happens when
