Greetings all!

I am Ken and have been cooking since the 10th grade (first job at a Bonanza steak house) and that was 35 years ago.

I live in West Sadsbury township and guard the rest of you in Southeastern PA from roving bands of Amish

I have a Lang Model 60 w/ Deluxe Warmer for serious work and a 5 burner Dusquene to make food for the kids pool parties.

I have catered for friends and cook for my church and community meals at a local woman's shelter.

I make my own sausages, BBQ sauce, red sauce and various dips and spreads.

I use natural casings except for skinless hot dogs for which I use collegan casings

I am Armenian by descent.

I believe you can not properly say too much and garlic in the sentence in English.

I believe portion control is highly overated as was growing up.

My next event is a Meat Fest I am holding to introduce some of my friends to the benefits of making your own sausage and smoking meats.

The days scheduled food processing will encompass the following:

For meatball/meatloaf mix and sausages

50 # 80/20 beef

140 # of boneless pork butt

20 # of boneless skinless turkey thighs

For smoking and Jerky

30# top round

7 salmon fillets

7 turkey breasts

5 whole briskets

We'll run two electric #12 grinders and a 10# manual stuffer

Jerky will take smoke for 2 hours and finish in 2 American Harvest Dehydrators

I am looking to get some buddies hooked so I can sell them my grinder and stuffer and upgrade to larger equipment.

I want to motorize a #32 chop-rite and construct a fridge/freezer electric smoker so I can try my hand at bacon, hams and shinkenspeck

Looking forward to discussing and learning from and with you.
