    Central Florida Butcher?

    From my understanding, yes. There's a few forum members on another board that get USDA Prime steaks for $13/lb, USDA Prime briskets for $3-4/lb, etc. I haven't been there, since it's a bit further than I'd like to travel. But here it's a very good place for meat.

    Piri Piri (Mock) Chicken - Thank You Africanmeat

    No biggie - I hope you can find it. I like it, and would buy more (of the premixed stuff, I was sent samples of).  To me, it's very versatile - it has a good amount of heat and a nice flavor. Not all the time do I want Habanero "spicy" either. This Peri Peri mix, satisfies my "heat" craving...

    Piri Piri (Mock) Chicken - Thank You Africanmeat

    Excellent looking bird and meal! I bet it was mighty tasty. I was under the impression that Piri Piri is cooking using the African bird's eye chili?  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piri_piri I was able to find a rub from "Pepper Pilot" a website, and forum member on another forum, that packages...

    Kobe Beef Steaks

    Very nice looking steak, but the website doesn't even have any info for Kobe steaks - their Prime is $29.99/lb, which is on the expensive/very expensive side. Wonder what their Kobe prices are.

    18.5" WSM + Cowboy Lump = One Loooong Quality Smoke

    Looking forward to the QView, as are many others.  I'm sure it will turn out great, and the party will be a hit!  I suppose if you don't smoke food often, 1/lb lump an hour isn't too bad. I smoke/grill so often, that I had to get something that was more efficient. Just a little shocked, when I...

    18.5" WSM + Cowboy Lump = One Loooong Quality Smoke

    Wow, 18lbs for a single smoke (two meats though)? Roughly how long did the 18lbs last you?

    Best Corn on the Cobb ----- Brine it.

    That's how we do them here.. and we have corn festivals here all the time. If we are removing the kernels from the cob, and making like a little corn salad, I'll blacken/heavily grill one cob, so it has that seared, grilled, charred flavor, to be cut up with the rest of the traditionally...

    Lump vs Briq's in long smokes

    Only reason I use lump in my smoker, is because I can close down the vents completely, and save lump. Whereas briquettes once lit, break apart and are unusable. While I pay nearly twice as much for lump, the stuff I use, literally last forever, and I'm able to save lump. The long lasting...

    First Bacon...Ever! With Qview

    Thanks! I'll buy a slightly bigger shoulder next time, and cut it in half so I can try my hand at BBB. :yahoo:

    First Bacon...Ever! With Qview

    Looks excellent! :drool So, essentially it's a pork shoulder, cut in half, cured, smoked, cut and eaten? The same can be done with a smaller pork shoulder as well, correct (ie 3-4lbs)?

    Your favorite wood...Cold Smoke Bacon?

    Haven't made Bacon yet, going to start it hopefully today, but Pee-CON is always my choice for smoking anything. Since it isn't as strong of a flavor as Hickory or Mesquite, you can have a mild smoke or double the amount of Pee-CON for a heavier smoke. :biggrin:

    time to try out my new Dry Bag System! the Conclusion!

    Yes. The bag lets moisture out. Or, in it's simplest form, you can age the meat without any bags - but you absolutely need a dedicated fridge for one without a bag, because it smells (good) and you can't have anything in the fridge that gives off any odor, or it will leach into the meat as well.
