    First time grinding brisket for burgers...

    I have been grinding brisket for burgers for awhile now. I do use the fine plate to counter the tough brisket. Best burgers we have had in many years. I'm probably going to pick one up at sams this weekend, we are out of patties. No sales at this time so I'm guessing between 4.50 and 5.00 a...

    BJ's general thoughts?

    I've had BJ's for almost a year. There are a hand full of things we buy there but do most of our warehouse shopping at Sam's. If their membership wasn't so cheap I would not renew.

    Freezing Meats???

    I need a new rig!

    I bought a MES40 and didn't even use it before I bypassed the stock controls and added an Auber PID. The box is great and a smoke tube with a PID makes it a great smoker.

    Which of these 2 to buy?

    Thermoworks is my choice. Might not be the cheapest but they work best for me. I have never used Inkbird but do have Thermopro and it drops connection all the time for me.

    TSM Red Roof 30lb smoker

    I don't remember how I bypassed the controller on mine, I do know I found the info here. Mine works great with the Auber PID, I just wonder what the max safe temp is for the box.

    Want a new gas grill, recommendations?

    Second the Ace Hardware if you have one near you. That's where I got my Webber and they usually have a good selection all year round.
