An alphabetical recipe index, or something similar organized by meat and cut would be really cool. I would be happy to help.

That's a great idea! We've already been putting more focus on food in the blog, I think adding a recipe section would be a great add-on!

Would be nice to communicate with new people to add their name to the map. I see some people on here looking for agents and i'm pretty sure we have a lot of people that are not on the map.
Not sure if you could make new users go to the map, or maybe a mass email to every one or just new users.

I like the index for recipes, alphabetically may be a pain but a index by main ingredient would be nice
such as
pork roast
pulled pork
bacon
pork ribs
hams
other pork
etc.
you could have it expand when clicked on, such as open the recipes and see
beef
pork
chicken
fish
other meats
appetizers
sides
deserts
sauces and rubs

then when they are clicked they expand, that would keep the board uncluttered till things are opened

my main thing I would like to see improved is keeping subjects where they belong, I see stuff in the wrong place all over, but I am just kinda anal like that

one last point, a regional area set up under the meetup forum so we could check for meetups by the area we are in. I think it would improve guys getting together to chew the fat and cook
If we were meant to grill with gas then the garden of Eden would have had a pipeline

These were done over a year ago. I can't recall why they were never used. Not enough kettle I guess. @Troy was like the guy on SNL: "I coulda used a little more kettle!"

My favorite forum is the "Weber Charcoal Kettles and accessories" forum. By the thread count I would say that I am not alone.
This forum is the place we ask engineering/mechanical questions and historical/restoration questions. We show off our mods, restorations, scores, handles, gadgets, etc. We also post about charcoal sales and clearances.
 
Should we consider subdividing this forum? Or is the variety and eccentricity part of what makes this site fun?

Kinda trivial, but how about some additional Weber/BBQ related emoticons?    8)
