    Hi Neo!!
    Luckily I happened to see this, because I don't monitor this Profile Messaging. I usually use the "Conversation" Messaging. It's impossible to miss a message with that.
    We're still Kicking, and Mrs Bear's Doing Great !!
    Thanks for asking. Hope I'm still Cracking You up.

    Bearcarver I have attempted making bacon from scratch several times and do not get extra smokiness that you refer too. I have followed your instructions to a tee and use an amns sawdust smoker in my electric smokin-tex smoker would smoking for a second day help I even put belly on racks to dry under fan for 2-3 hrs. to form pellicle.?????

    Hmmm, What Species of Dust did you use in your AMNS?
    How many hours was it actually smoking?
    I use Hickory for more smoke flavor.
    You can do it for as many hours as you want.
    I usually smoke it with Hickory for 10 or 11 hours.
    Just don't do anything to make the Smoke too Heavy (Thick).

    I'm looking for bone-in prime rib advice for a 10-person dinner. Should I get a few smaller roasts or try to find one large one? Pretty sure everyone likes medium temp and I'm not sure how a massive roast could all temp out evenly.

    I got it & replied on it.
    Lucked out---I just happened to notice it, by luck.
    There's is a better chance of me seeing it, if you just add a comment to the end of my Step by Step you used, like one of my Double Smoked Hams.

    Hi Bear, made an account just to get your thoughts on this: I just bought a Gen #1 MES 40 for $378, but I'm wondering if I should get the MES 240G instead (~$368) or even wait for the MES 400? I'm not sure, and the Gen1 arrives in 2 days but I'm fine returning it and getting a 240G instead if that's the better option.

    What are your thoughts on the MES 400?

    Hi David,
    I just saw this, because I don't check this page often.
    However I gave you a Full answer in a Message on "Conversations"----That we used to call "Private Messages".

    Hi Bear, I am following your posts. They are great. I am a newbie.I just bought a 12" oval Amazin Smoker tube. I just read that you do not recommend it for cherry sawdust. What smallish smoker tray should I get? Also...what cherry sawdust do you buy? I use the smoken it #1. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Sorry for taking so long, but I rarely even look at these Profile Posts. I wish they'd get rid of them.
    I replied to you in the PM Conversations.

    I'll send you a PM.
    I never use this Profile Post thing.
    PM s (Conversations) is the way to go.

    Bearcarver, I followed your step by step jerky recipe. After rinsing and patting dry slices, I followed very close to times and temps (Slight variance) your had posted. When dried, it seems like I lost all the flavor. The brine should have penetrated the meat after 22 hrs, but did I just end up washing all the flavor off? Kinda confused... Love the ingredients used!

    Sorry it took me so long. I very seldom check the "Profile Comments". If you want me, send me a PM (Start a conversation).

    Anyway---If you don't rinse them off they could be too Salty. Next time give them just a quick rinse & don't wipe them.

    I never tried Halibut, but my recipe & method worked fine for all the other fish I have tried, so I see no reason why it wouldn't work on Halibut.
