This is my last post on SMF.
I no longer feel welcomed after the ad overload debacle that resulted in name calling and shaming members into paid membership. I don't mind the odd member classless remarks , but veteran/respect members resort to the same attitude and mods appear to tolerate, even...
One of the complainers here...never considered myself a freeloader, but if you think that I am one because I pointed out the mobile version was not usable with the current ads layout...sure. After all, I am from Canada, so I must be a socialist.
Not sure I understand why the thread was removed. It raised a valid point.
If the discussion went south the mods could have blocked it or remove the inappropriate posts.
I've seen some ads about air sous vide appliances (LG has one for example); basically an oven with better air circulation that can hold temps as low as 100F. Food still has to be bagged, as you would in an SV bath.
Any experience with these? Not planning to buy one, just curious.
Nice slicing job. What size is the blade?
I have a 7" rebranded commercial grade slicer...my slices are short but they come out perfect. I slice thin #1.5-2.5, rind on. The slice crumbles in your mouth. No denture required.

I use 10% brine (no cure) for backfat and hocks. Salt uptake in backfat is not as high as it is in meat. Its edible (and very tasty) without soaking. The belly though would be inedible unless you soak.
Or if used for cooking.
I read different experiences on that. Some said the high temp holds up, others as you said, went the regular oiling route. Will see how it looks after a few smokes.
I live in a big city...i get my fuel (wood) from a craiglist-like classifieds platform. You dont need a lot or charcoal...just to get the sticks going.
Myok joe highland RF firebox has been growing rust ...as expected. Finally made time to repaint it. Removed most of the rust with a angle grinder and a wire wheel. Then pressured washed, let it dry and sprayed two coats of rustoleum. Tomorrow will pressure wash the insides then oil and run it...
