    Breakfast Sausage

    I agree with using the courser plate with both my grinders, the KA is my back-up which I needed tonight when the drive tang stripped on my waring.

    Smoked some fresh pork bellies... Qview

    Thanks for the info, I didn't realize I was in the cold smoke forum, I did a search to avoid starting a new thread. I like to eat it both ways so I'll have to decide which way to go.
