    Bone in turkey breast lunch meat.

    Hi all, I have a 6.68lb bone in turkey breast and would like to try brining/curing it for lunch meat. Would this breast be a candidate for that? Looks like it may have solution add already. ??? Any recipes and advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Here we go, Prime packer in the house.

    While at Costco this afternoon I decided to swing by the meat section. Low and behold, the beautifully sign read, BRISKET $2.99lb. Oh yeah. I rummaged through the pile and, not that I know what I'm looking for, picked a 15.20 pounder. So I get to the register and the fine chunk of beef rang up...

    Baby Back epic failure.

    A local market had baby backs on sale for $1.98lb. The first two days I went to buy some they were wiped out at two of the nearby stores. I showed up when they opened the next day and there were three Racks left. I grabbed what I thought were the best look two racks, limit two per customer. I...

    Ground jerky with mango.

    Hi, I am venturing out and wanting to make my own ground beef jerky flavors. I have been using Hi Mountain and Nesco seasoning mixes. Is it safe to use fresh mango and habenero peppers pureed in ground beef jerky? I use 93/7 ground beef. I'm thinking it may add too much moisture and maybe even...

    Brisket time.

    Greetings, I've been itching to try another brisket so I stopped by the local frequently mentioned warehouse store on my way home from work. As I was sorting through the 10-12 choice whole briskets, 2 guys rustled in and started reaching in front grabbing as if it was the last beef on the...

    Certified Angus Brisket Flat

    So a local grocery store now carries certified Angus brisket flats. The are sectioned into about 8"-10" pieces for 7.99lb. I've been itching to slap a brisket in the MB gravity and was wondering if one of the tiny chunks would be worth it? Or should I stick with a whole packer from Costco for...

    Poor man's burnt ends gone wrong.

    Okay, these looked simple to do but I'll be darned I managed to screw them up. They were dry and hard. I was bummed so I tossed them before getting any pics of what they looked like cut open. Started with a chuck roast, cubed then equal amounts of SPG. Mixed well in a bowl covered with plastic...

    Did I mess it up?

    So I mixed up a 2lb batch of ground beef jerky using Hi Mountain Jerky cure and seasoning on Sunday about 1:30 pm and stuck it in the fridge. I planned on shooting it from the cannon then placing it my dehydrator the next morning. Well, guess what I forgot to do? I was busy yesterday and forgot...

    Lowest temp for a Masterbuilt Gravity 800?

    What is the lowest temp the gravity 800 will run at? Masterbuilt states 225 is that? Thinking of doing some jerky but not sure it will go low enough. I guess I'll check it out myself. Thanks in advance.

    Whole turkey attempt on the GF800 rotisserie

    Greetings, I have a 14lb whole Butterball turkey I would like to cook on my Gravity 800 Rotisserie on Christmas day. I am wondering should I brine it? Or would that be overkill since I'm presuming it's already got goodies in it. Any other tips and pointer would be a big help. Thank you all.

    Time for a new meat thermometer.

    Hello, I think I toasted my Thermopro TP20 while doing the burn in on my new MB gravity unit. The smoker was up to 400ish and the TP20 was reading some weird mumbo jumbo. Now when I plug in the probes and turn it on it reads 108. California temp was well under that. Any how, what would you all...
