Stainless steel vs steel smokers and pits
I look at new Pits and wonder if there is any advantage of owing a Stainless pit / smoker over a plain steel unit. The Stainless steel pits look nice, But, the price for nice is not so nice. Thoughts.. Cheers, 56Jeff- 56jeff

Grinder question
About 8 years ago, I drove 45 min to get a horn stuffer,, That was a big mistake, most people use them for door stops. As I mentioned above, I have a #5 Northern tool stuffer ( I think made by grizzley) and yes it has nylon gears.. I have to admit I was really upset at first about this... -
How do you make your Breakfest patties?
I was hoping to make 2oz patties,, 4oz patties seems really big for breakfast sausage patties. As a matter of fact.. We did roll a batch out flat and cookie cut them into patties, I like the pre-freezing part, as we did not do that step. I like the Idea of Rolling the meat our in flat sheets... -
