    Newbie, Questions about Injecting for Pork Loins and Brisket/Pastrami

    YEP. Those loins I am running have a VERY similar spice profile as that Kassler. I use 1T of TQ per pound and 1tsp per pound spice. Same for corned beef and same for pastrami. IE for pastrami 4lb hunk 4T TQ and 4tsp each of garlic, coriander, and BP.

    Possible Help For Arthritis?!

    Well dang! Added to my stack... After only 1 week of boron supplementation of 6 mg/d, a further study by Naghii et al<a href="https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4712861/#ref20">20</a> of healthy males (n = 8) found (1) a significant increase in free testosterone, which rose from an...

    Newbie, Questions about Injecting for Pork Loins and Brisket/Pastrami

    https://www.mortonsalt.com/article/meat-curing-german-style-cured-pork-chops-gepockelte/ Super easy and super good. I smoked these on my pellet grill and no pan fry. You could smoke in advance and then sear to reheat.

    Newbie, Questions about Injecting for Pork Loins and Brisket/Pastrami

    We use a cheap microwave thing to poach, super easy. Sauce is Knorr Packet. I used to do scratch and used a "blender hollandaise recipe" I got somewhere but took a lot of work to dial in. Lots of people overlook it but english muffin was toasted. Yeah unhealthy, but Easter only. Wife's...

    How to best Cook Frog Legs

    Ate them but never made them. MIL was a pro cook at our Yacht Club and Elks Lodge and soaked ANY fish we caught in milk and it seemed to do the trick. AI seems to agree "The proteins in dairy (casein) bind to trimethylamine (TMA)—the compound responsible for the "fishy" smell and taste—and...

    Wanting To Go LED?!

    You can get old school flo tubes from an electrical supply house. I probably have 20-30 if you want them. On converting that fixture to LED (and good chance it already was done) it's called ballast bypass. Snip the tranny wires and wire power to one side of fixture and neutral to the other...

    Wanting To Go LED?!

    You are in luck. I replaced pretty much all my office tubes to LED like 20. Super easy if you are handy. HEY... Those look like LED already!!! Whats that yellow label say in first pic?

    Diatomaceous Earth on wood pile

    Welcome. One of Dad's best friends family owned a tree felling company. That's how it started. Interesting but overwhelming at the same time. Red vs white isn't a huge deal to me. Looks like red oak down in NC is known as spanish oak. Burn up the pecan and keep that stuff away structures...

    Possible Help For Arthritis?!

    Found this is a Reddit thread for arthritis supps. Threw some of this in my Amazon cart. Mostly for my Mom who is really struggling with it (knees). https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8560605/

    Pickled Kielbasa

    Nice! Pickled a TON of stuff this past winter and got a feel for it. I used a bunch of things but yeah, kielbasa, brats, etc. @bill ace 350 BEAT ME TO IT! I think I prefer the emulsified stuff. IE hot dogs/red hots/etc. I generally hate adding sugar to stuff but found it really helped with...

    Diatomaceous Earth on wood pile

    Oak doesn't sound as sexy as pecan but it simply works. Nothing else for me. I've tried pretty much all of the usual sexy woods, peach, mulberry, pear, apple, sassafras, you name it. NOPE. As you said yourself, resistant to pest too and much higher BTU than fruit or nut woods. You can call...

    Newbie, Questions about Injecting for Pork Loins and Brisket/Pastrami

    Thank you. Yeah I pull around there and some times up higher not super critical. Oh yeah underrated for sure. I got hooked on loins at a young age from my uncle making eggs benny for Easter. Add to that I can routinely find them near $1/lb too. I get 3 runs out of a whole loin. Center...

    Diatomaceous Earth on wood pile

    Beat me to it! I did my 8th grade science fair project on DE. Very cool stuff. DE works well on adult bugs only not larvae so will not eradicate an infestation. Boric acid will tho. Natural non toxic as well. My understanding is the bark is highly susceptible to bugs so remove it/use it up...
