    Pork Butt question

    OH WOW! THE McRIB IS BACK!.....yuck.

    Thankfully we never let our kids get started eating nasty stuff from places like Mcdonalds. When my son was in 2nd grade they talked about how the stuff they call "food" is processed. My son decided at that point he would never eat any of that garbage. He is now 18 and my daughter 20  and they...

    "Touching" Ribs

    Propane Vs. Electric Smoker

    You will definitely get opinions. I love my electric. I have never had any issues using electric except for not getting the cool smoke ring. I use sand in the water pan and my temps come back super fast. I have put countless amounts of meat through my smoker and would not even consider going any...

    First sausage - Help needed, Updated with Q-View

    My daughter decided she wanted to make breakfast sausage links. She went out and bought the meat grinder and stuffer attachment for her new Kitchenaid. She has a recipe from the club she works at that she wants to try. She is a pastry chef so this is something different for her.  Just bought 7...
