    I tried beer can burgers a while back. I loved them but I really wanted more stuff inside. I decided to increase the size to a small bowl size. I used a quart glass jar. to form the hamburger around. I got some thin sliced bacon to wrap the burger. I made one with pizza flavor, and the...

    Large Burger press

    All of the burger presses are around 4 1/2 inch. By the time the meat shrinks the burger is smaller than most buns. Some where on the Forums here someone suggested a making one out of PVC pipe. I bought a 5" PVC coupler for $15, a handle for $11, and I found a scrap piece of Corian ( I...

    PFAs .... Flourocarbons including Telfon

    I just saw the movie "Dark Waters" and was dumb founded. It was a reenactment of a journey that a lawyer undertook to sue Dupont over PFOAs and the destruction that it had done to a community. This really got me thinking. PFAs are a group of over 5,000 similar chemicals that are used in...

    Smoking snob

    Think I have become a snob. The wife and I went to a County fair Saturday night. Mama wanted to get BBQ pork and Brisket. I was thinking "Really, after what we have been smoking". But I did not say a word. We shared the food. After the wife had a bite of both she said "This isn't even close to...

    No salt / low salt brine Citrus Turkey

    Due to health reasons, I am working on making recipes that are low salt/no salt. OK, is a brine without salt really a brine? Or is it now a marinade? Oh well. I reduced salt content by 95%. normally I would have used 3/4 cup of salt for 2.5 gallons, which I thought was already on the light...

    Just got a late 40s GE Fridge, have smoke stack questions.

    I have been reading the treads here for a couple of months. I have been smoking for about 15 years with a $200 propane Smoke Vault. I have made a few minor mods to help it smoke better. I have always wanted to get a better smoker, but I could not find a good smoker in my price range. I want...
