    Looking for Sandwich Meat Ideas - From Ground Meat

    Dave, Well sir, I do owe you an apology and I'm a big enough man to do so. I made the stupid mistake of not reading the entire thread, and thought you pounced on me for suggesting an alternative source for recipes... again, I'm sorry for coming across so crass. I did learn something from your...

    Looking for Sandwich Meat Ideas - From Ground Meat

    Wow... just like being in biology class! I could care less about transglutaminase or it's lengthy definition, I don't use it or intend to start. What I know and use as MEAT GLUES are soy protien concentrate, powdered milk, and powdered gelatin. I guess if others want to experiment with MEAT...

    Looking for Sandwich Meat Ideas - From Ground Meat

    First off... What is MEAT GLUE? I'm sure I know but don't refer to it in the same manner. Secondly, if you're implying that I suggested someone eat raw ground meats, your wrong, I merely suggested an option for more recipes. If you're referring to the fact that when you grind meat you are...

    Looking for Sandwich Meat Ideas - From Ground Meat

    I don't know if you visit the Pinterest website or not but there are hundreds of recipes for homemade sandwich style meats on that site. Many of them are of European origin, German, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, etc. Something for you to think about... SMB

    Cold Smoked Hard Boiled eggs

    The Mrs. hosted her family's annual get together dinner (not a full blown reunion... just siblings, their spouses, and kids) back in October so I smoked some cheese for the occasion a few weeks ahead of time. Feeling adventurous, I decided to try smoking some eggs the day before for her to make...

    3-2-1 pull off the bone ribs... NOT!!!

    My third try... Well... a few months ago, the Mrs. brought home a small (2.6 lbs.) pack of Pork spare ribs from a local supermarket and they were already pre-seasoned with their version of a Memphis rub. They were on sale and she got suckered in so I threw them in the freezer for a later time...

    What Wood type for Cheese Smoking?

    I have used both Cherry and Hickory (sawdust) although I believe the Cherry is milder. I have mixed the two as well with good result. And yes, you should wrap or vac seal your cheese after smoking and let it rest. SMB

    Day 1 of 4 making sausage

    Josh, First of all I'd like to say a big KUDOS for what you've done with just your grinder. I still stuff some sausages with my Hobart grinder as it is much faster if I'm making a large volume of sausage in a natural casing. I found early on that ingredients I added like peppers, onions...

    Day 1 of 4 making sausage

    The bottom line is... you get what you pay for. I personally don't recommend ANY of SausageMakers stuffers. I have had problems with my 15 lb.  "plastic" geared one, and have resigned myself to the fact that if it needs to be repaired again, well, they can just keep the POS!!... For someone like...

    Mionk Balls

    Very interesting... Just so happens that my Mrs. and I made 10 lbs. of my "TO DIE FOR" venison/pork meatballs yesterday and I vac sealed all of them last night. We do a lot of appetizers for Christmas Eve & Christmas and the meatballs are always on the list and are always a hit. I am however...

    It's going to be a good week

    I just sharpened a custom set of Dexter Russell knives for my Brother in law which had one like that in the group. He told me that he only uses it to slice prime rib. He's a marketing rep for a major food distributor and puts on a lot of shows throughout the northeast region. He's used these...
