I love barbecue but seem to know very little about it! I cook lots indoors but haven't had much practice outdoors or with big meat

To make sure my next BBQ goes better than the last: What are your favourite places (websites, YouTube channels, blogs, etc) to get barbecue advice/knowledge/ideas/inspiration?

Alternatively: what are your best pieces of advice for BBQ novices? :)

Thanks in advance!

Practice heat control in your grill. Learn how to create different zones with it for direct and indirect cooking. Experiement with dry brining your food. Get a good instant read meat thermometer and a good leave in thermometer with a couple of probes. Cooking on a grill is essentially the same as cooking with anything else once you know how to get your grill setup.
