    Brisket Flat (step by step with Qview)

    Hey guys, I have a wedding this weekend. Bought a bunch of brisket flats. 9 to 13 lbs. If I run at 230. Do you think 156 min per pound will be accurate?? Scared newbie asking.

    Another Chuck Roast (SV Experiment)

    More Salmon Nuggets?? Really??

    Hi Craig, my boss caught a bunch of salmon on Lake Michigan earlier this summer. We finally are getting around to smoking some. I would like to try your famous nuggets. My question is, we don't have time here at work for the whole 10hr process. How would you split this in two days? After a 5hr...

    Wanted to add this in here. Something I want to try. Most of my family did not want "Grandpas" sausage cured or smoked. I would like to try his recipe with cure and smoke. In talking to @bearcarver , he shared with me an experiment he did long ago. Figured I would share it in this thread. Here...

    I'd like to Pass the Cheese, Not Cut It!

    I'm wanting to smoke some cheese quick for Christmas baskets. Seems like everyone likes to let it mellow for 4-6 weeks. Any suggestions if you want to eat it sooner? Smoke times and temps? Planning on cold smoking. Any info is appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi all, over the weekend of Dec 8-10 we got all of our venison trimmings made in to sausages. Finally getting the post up. There are a couple of helper posts I did about a temporary smokehouse, summer sausage questions, and the stuffer I acquired from a farm auction. Thanks to all who helped...

    Gotta Love Farm Auctions

    I think a bit more water would have helped, but mostly the hard cranking came from my re - seasoning. It wasn't perfectly smooth like I hoped and didn't have time to clean it back out. Thanks!! Thank You! It fits pretty snug. No way a strainer basket would fit.

    Temporary Smokehouse Questions

    Thanks for the look and the input! I want to try a little insulation on the outside of the box next time. Not needing to really get above 180 and hopefully a little warmer outside, might do the trick.
