    Suppliers

    Hello all. I am looking for a supplier for the high temp cheddar cheese. I searched the web and find crazy variations in price. Where do you guys get your high temp cheese? I am guessing that many of you have come to a point where you buy from the same place because you get value for the cash...

    Natural casing hot dogs.

    My brother used to send me hot dogs from the Michigan/Indiana border town of Elkhart, Indiana. The hot dogs were possibly Eckrich but unsure as they were sold a out of the meat counter at a store up there. I just got them as dogs vacuum packed by my brother, frozen and mailed to me in Texas. At...

    What spices do you try to keep on hand?

    I know that there are a lot of spices out there but I can't buy them all. What do you always try to have available? Here is what I have. The bigger jars are the most often called for and the small ones are rarely used or just really small quantities.

    Can you brine Turkey and Chicken together?

    I'm guessing it is not recommended but I am curious. I guess I would ask the same about beef and pork. I never thought about it before as I just paid attention to the anything to chicken cross contamination. What say you?

Now that I am in an apartment with no place for a...

So I am starting off with a MES 30 Analog and a Cold Smoker that will not attache to my smoker. Rather than send the smoker or the Cold Smoker back I just decide...

    I think I had an uncorrectable STUPID ATTACK

    I bought a MES. It is the analog one with legs. Looks pretty good but while I was assembling it I noticed that there is no chip loading tube like I saw described here. Turns out this one requires you to put the chips in through the door. I thought they all had the side loading. This would not be...

    Would these be considered true statements, ALWAYS?

    Anytime I use cure in a recipe I should make the recipe but not smoke it for 24 hours? I read that in a post and several people seemed to agree. ALSO If I make Jerky I should marinate the jerky 24 hours then smoke it to dry? If I make snack sticks I should mix all ingredients together, stuff...

    Jerky without Soy Sauce

    Does anyone have a suggestion on a Jerky recipe that avoids the use of Soy Sauce and Teriyaki? I do not care for the taste of either of these. One real issue that I can't seem to figure out is this; When I buy jerky it has what is a kind of sharp taste that to me defines jerky. All the other...
