    I have heard of people using a shelf from Traeger and it sounds as if Rec tec is going to be coming out with a shelf in the near future

    Grilla vs Rec Tec vs ???

    From my understanding it is that the Stampede is a "portable" grill so it will take more abuse and greater chance of damage. The bull is going to be more of a stationary/permanent grill

    First Try at Hot Dogs

    From what I see you have 5 lbs of meat, why only 1/2 tsp cure?

    Cure not working?

    Cure not working?

    Whole meat vs ground meat. I understand oxidation and all. I just can't figure out why this has happened a couple of times. I hate having to throw out a batch of meat because of something I may be doing wrong. I need more consistency. If I was doing fresh sausage and it was like this I...

    Cure not working?

    Usually it turns a darker color and then back to a pink/red when heated. Meat usually seems fo firm up a little too.

    The James Jerky Dryer from Smokin-It

    Does anyone use this? More info on how well it works and is it worth the money? I have a cookshack and this looks like it could help me with jerky instead of cracking my door open. Although cracking the door might help keep the heating cycle going so I can keep wood smoking at low temps.

    Finally—-Eye Round in the SV (Fork Tender!!)

    Bear, do you think this will work good for cutting up to put in vegetable beef Soup? I just got 2 the other day cause they were on sale for I believe $3.6x/ lb I am going to try using this instead of top round roast that was way to expensive. One I cut to make into jerky and the 2nd is...
