    Ah, If the code is still available I too would like to grab one. In fact I'd like to get two or three, I'd give one to each of my sons! I do have the inkbird sous vide and the instant read thermometer, very happy with both. Came here to SMF to look for a vac sealer recommendation since mine...

    1.5 hp Cabelas grinder.

    I have the same grinder, rips through a deer or a boar in less than 10 minutes! Yes I've used it to stuff, quite a bit actually. It works, I used it for years until I got a dedicated LEM stuffer. I find that even though my stuffer is only 5 lb, thats what I use, it just seems to be easier &...

    Quarter Pound Dogs (Pics)

    Bear, scoot yourself over to Renningers (between lyons & kutztown), I'm fairly sure I've seen extra large berks dogs at one of the stands in there. Might not be the same ones they sell at wawa, I dont know, but worth a look.

    Grill or propane smoker?

    I'm not one of the experts you were hoping to hear from, but I can tell you that I find smoking on my weber propane grill works, but its not the same as using my smokers. I think you make the right choice buying a separate smoker unit.

    How do I get more smoke flavor...?

    You can shred pork thats been cooked to an IT of 150? I cant. I have to get the IT above 190 to shred, 200-205 is about best IMO. At 150 my wife would be saying "when are you going to put the meat in the smoker?" :biggrin: If you're only getting up to 150 I"m guessing you're cooking for 3-4...

    Deer legs. What to do, what to do?

    Good to hear, sometimes its hard to tell where a person is coming from in a short post. backstrap=tenderloin ... most people think so and use the words interchangeably. I think thats due to marketing, I think the meat industry has used terms to their advantage for quite a while. (Observe how...

    Deer legs. What to do, what to do?

    Im concerned that if whatever you prepare isnt really good, you'll be giving your family a negative impression of venison, which would really be a shame. Especially since you started out with a tough loin...   (I've never had a tough venison loin, it should have been VERY tender and flavorful...

    New to the forum with a question about wood seasoning.

    Are you wanting logs to burn to generate heat, or chunks to generate smoke? I'd suggest cutting both now, the chunks will probably be dry enough to use in a couple months so you can quit buying chips. Depending on how dead/dry the wood is, yeah, it might need up to a year to dry enough for...

    How to light a AMNPS - the manly way!

    Huh. I didnt know there was any other way.

    13 kabobs at once!

    The food looks excellent, but I just kept looking at those skewers - I assume the flat design keeps the meat from spinning on the skewer, good idea

    " It won't take no more Smoke after 4 hours..." HORSE HOCKEY!!!

    Chef, if you get in a bind you can smoke at my place, I dont have any neighbors. About an hours drive from Hburg. Bring all your smokers and use mine too if you want.

    cast iron pan for smoking???...??

    I have an electric, I use a small (8"?) cast iron frying pan in it. Works great for me :) I used to set the pan right on the heating element, but I found that if I prop it up on a couple old bolts I get better air flow (The air intake on mine is directly underneath the element). I do NOT use...

    What makes my meat black??

    Throw that piece of tile in the trash, regulate temps by controlling the amount of air at the intake on the bottom. (In other words... "what DaveOmak said.")
