    Blackened Rockfish...

    I haven't had rockfish since I left Washington state. Those look great. We cook elote frequently here in Texas as a side to Tex-Mex. I can see where blacked fish would pair well also.

    Favorite injection for pork butt?

    You can't go wrong with just apple juice and salt.

    Thanks to whoever recommended Walton's sausage spice

    I made a 10 pound batch today, using Holly Regular Pork Sausage seasoning. A test patty was well received by family. :emoji_boar:

    Gout

    Very true. Red meat has a lot of purines. I'm with Ray, turkey breast.

    High-end pellet grill rec?

    I was in the same boat as you. I looked at several pellet smokers, and ended up with https://mgrills.com/collections/blazn-grill-works. I got the Grid Iron version. It has been going strong for many years. I use an A-Maze-N smoker maze with every cook. As we all know, it is not as good as an...

    Edible collagen casings

    I'm damned if I do, damned if I don't. I've never had problems with natural casings before, but this batch is sorry.

    Edible collagen casings

    Thanks. I see 38mm is not strong enough to hang, but the snack sticks size you can hang.

    Edible collagen casings

    I have never used collagen casings, only pig and sheep guts. The last batch of Polish sausage I made used 38mm hog casings. Unfortunately they are almost inedible -- very chewy. Are there any downsides with using collagen casings?

    How do Ferrell Hogs taste?

    My one experience with feral hog meat was nasty. Never willing to try it again.

    Too much pink curing salt

    Water, and more seasoning. I did some research into this today, as it got me curious. I found a person saying an old sausage recipe from the 40s had much higher curing salts than we do today. Doing nothing would probably be safe. Another article said you'd have to eat 22 kgs of sausage at one...

    Too much pink curing salt

    That would work as well. Just depends on how long it has been brining.

    Too much pink curing salt

    Yep, need to know if this is a dry brine. If liquid, you could pour off 2/3.

    Chili Time - and a reorder Carol Shelby's Texas Chili Mix

    BTW, the company responded to one of the complainers: Hi Bob, We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your most recent Carroll Shelby’s Chili purchase. And we do appreciate all consumer feedback. Outside of the salt packet removal in 2017, there have been no changes to the...

    Chili Time - and a reorder Carol Shelby's Texas Chili Mix

    That would be me. It is Carroll, not Carol. :emoji_wink: I have not tried this. I would like to compare it to my recipe. Thanks to the OP for the post.
