    Red's Santa Maria Build - A Custom Grill for JIMSMOKES!

    Looks great, I thought if I built 1 I would pour the base instead of using fire brick, little more time consuming but might stop rust from forming under the bricks, thanks for sharing the journey

    Vacuum vs 24-Hour Frig Marinating

    high end dual fuel ranges

    I really love induction type ranges, but you need to keep a warranty on them as anything repair related is $$$ , it heats up super fast and no ducted fan needed for spent gas fumes. The newer units have no preheat features and a host of other stuff related to oven cooking. The no preheat on our...

    Kitchen Aid Pasta Maker

    All of the KA accessories have been good quality that I bought, I have a extruder set that works well, haven't used it in a lot of years as I ended up in bad shape with #2 diabetes about the time I got started using and learning it. Wore the grinder out on a bunch of deer though :emoji_wink:

    Flat Racks vs Hanging for Jerky

    Pellet smokers run too hot to do some things and jerky is 1 of them, easy to over shoot temps, it can be done but there's a fine line lol

    Hunting And Fishing Thread!?!

    I have loved muzzle loaders since the mid 80’s when I started taking deer hunting seriously, killed my first with a H&R inline which was better than side locks imo, that was borrowed have only owned new CVA’s up until I bought the Savage, love the no cleaning till I want to no crud ring ect...
