    How much to charge per pound of smoked pork butt.

    I am just getting into selling fully smoked and pulled butts, briskets and now I've been asked what I would charge for smoked turkeys. As you mentioned I would make my money on several butts, briskets, or turkeys on the grill versus one or two. As mentioned above I don't want to rape anyone...

    Venison Burgers

    Unfortunately I didn't get out this year, I was fortunate a buddy got a bigin (220)dressed out He did share his back strap and tenderloins (I am very fortunate on that) Wished I'd grilled, cast iron was okay, not even close to off the smoker/grill flavor

    Venison Burgers

    Main reason for post was I was questioning when to flip and pull, the burgers didn't sweat/bleed through like normal burgers. I usually us my grind for chili, this was my second straight venison burger grill, 1st one came out great no game back flavor. This time there was a deeper game taste...

    Venison Burgers

    Sorry for the no pics, low 18 out grill didn't turn out like I wanted (I'm sure others out there have had similar issues???) My biggest issue was my burgers didn't sweat/bleed through top like they have in warmer temps

    Traeger Turkey smoke

    Are there any DIY suggestions on what I can do to help my Traeger reach and maintain temps when outside temps are cold? Not really wanting to fork out $150 for their insulation blanket, or is it worth buying if I use it threw out the winter?
