    I tossed the meat Dave, it did get to the 140 rule but it tasted bad because of no seasoning, very important lesson I learned but I just hate wasting meat!

    Dave I am SOOOOOOOO DUMB!! I had a blonde moment I guess. Ihave been beating my head against the wall trying to figure out what I did wrong and I remembered. I forgot the seasoning and cure!!! So I pretty much was making a hamburger in a casing. Lesson learned I guess.

    Racks ? ? ?

    I want to the local recycling plant and found a ton of oven racks. I love these because they are wider and longer than fridge/freezer racks and you can cut them to fit your smoker so you can get the fullest out of your racks. They did not charge me let me dig through them and gave me what I found.

    A Biro 722 Grinder

    Just replaced my Holbart A-200 Grinder with a much bigger Biro 722 Grinder just wanted to know if any one knows much about this Biro model like pro and cons? It has a 1hp motor and does 12-20 pounds of meat a minute so it will be better than my last one.

    Turkey Question

    TJOHNSON I did pretty much what you did with your turkey, I hope it stalls out, I checked the breasts with a different thermometer and got the same temps, so I guess we'll wait and see what happens.
