    26 pound brisket that I’m going to smoke on the 10th. Along with a 22.5 pounder

    Biggest brisket I’ve seen. Very nice shape to it with thick flat. I’m going to turn it into pastrami. Just trimmed about 2-3 pounds off it and about 1-2 pounds off the smaller one. Choice grade angus with nice looking marbling on both

    Used a 24 pound top round and used 9 pounds of it for jerky that I put in the freezer for about 4-5 hours and sliced 1/4” on my Hobart slicer. Made 2 batches last week. First one was from 2 eye of rounds

    Anyone use one of these stuffing plates to dice meat into small chunks with??

    I’m not a fan of dicing meat into small 1/2”x1/2” chunks with a knife so I’m hoping this will get it done for me. Need to get a couple of pork butts first. Really been enjoying tacos from pork steaks lately. But cost me 4$ a pound last time. I can get whole boneless butts for 2$ a pound. Got a...

    27 pounds of top round

    10.5 went to jerky and 12 went to very lean ground beef. Smoked a piece of top sirloin too in the 135 degree smoker , can’t believe it only took a hour. I always toss my meat on cold grates so that’s why it seemed fast

    Do you guys put any cure salt into your deli meats that you smoke and slice ?

    I don’t think I did last time. Couldn’t find much turkey breast this time. Same double with bones but didn’t want that and didn’t want 21 lbs either that was boneless so opted to go for boneless chicken breast about 10 pounds of it. Doing about 9 pounds of pork loin again too. Going to probably...

    2 ten pounds pork belly’s about to hit the smoker in a week.

    This amount lasted me about 5-6 months it seemed like. This time I used my Weston 2300 with 15” bags so I could have the job stay clean when I flip the bags over and won’t leak at all. I’ll be cold smoking it about half the time with some blocks of cheese and that’s a 26 pound top round that...

    First time cold smoking cheese today

    Didn’t do a block of cheese but did try some good quality tilamook cheddar cheese. Smoked with oak wood for almost 2 hours. Really impressed with the flavor. I used a propane weed burner torch set very low pointed at a wood split to keep the temps very low, will be getting blocks to do next time

    Anyone smoked a whole beef shoulder chuck roll??

    Picked up a 35.5 pounder today and was planning on making ground beef with it for meals and make pepperoni with it but thinking about smoking it and vacuum sealing slices or pulled pieces and freezing it for meals. Probably take a while lol to get to 200 degree. Maybe braise it in an aluminum...

    Biggest eye of round you have seen?

    Found a 12.2 pounder today and had to have it. Just trimmed it and it came out to right at 10 pounds after trim and that equals 5.4 bucks a pound. I can get them with fat taken off already for 5.26 a pound but they are usually 6 pounds or so. Paid 4.42 a pound for this today I think. Here’s the...
