    The great Debate. Does Wild Game benefit from hanging and aging like beef does or not?

    have you ever seen how the French hang meat?  There is a definite difference.  Hang it where the temp is above 50, where there are no flies, with the hide on. About two weeks should do it.  Fork tender and delish.

    what the right size turkey to smoke ???

    What if--------------you started it in a 325 oven for a couple of hours before finishing in the MES??  Is there any way a stuffed turkey can be smoked?  Half my family would rather eat the stuffing than the turkey.

    Vacuume Bags Reuse or Throw Away?

    Holy cow!  You sure are right about that, I went and ordered enough stuff to keep my Foodsaver supplied for a year for a hundred bucks!  Waaaay cheaper than buying from Foodsaver!  Thank you so much!

    Smoking meat to preserve it??

    I love some of the great info on this site, and got so excited about some of the instructions I just couldn't wait for the next installment and downloaded the "course".  Is there a section or any information on smoking hams and bacon to finish "curing"?

    Smoking with wood heating pellets

    We also have a wood pellet stove, and you don't want to use those to smoke meat, because they contain paraffin or some other oil derivative to bind them together and help them burn.  They would make you meat nasty.  If you don't believe me, just leave the door open on your pellet stove for a while.
