Seen I was way low on bacon after the in-laws came by (I call them, Out-Laws, lol)
So I pulled a couple of bellies out of the fridge to start some more. All was good until I realized I was completely out of white pepper, dang! Really didn’t want to run to town for more, so thought about it and...
Felt good enough to snap some pics last night for the first time in a while. I make chowder usually a couple times a winter and it's been chilly again here in Central Virginia...got down to 27 overnight.
The spread
Potatoes peeled and diced about 1/2" and in the pot with the juice from the...
French toast with my home cured bacon, the dry cured with white pepper and garlic, and homemade sausage. Cooked Eric's @SmokinEdge sage recipe, the last of that I had. Both were a hit with the guests. Gotta get busy making more...
This is the way. When I make a bacon cheeseburger or get one out, I'm strictly a mayo, lettuce and tomato guy. Heavy on black pepper and salt applied directly to the tomato (also applicable on BLT's
BUT - my only hard and fast rule on bacon cheeseburgers is no mustard, no ketchup, no pickle...
Smoked 16lbs of cheddar and 4lbs of pepper jack on Dec 1st. Sliced and packed tonight.
Also cured canadian bacon on 12/10. Did 12lbs. Smoked 6pbs last night. Sliced and packed today. Did original, honey, and peppered. Will do the other 6 lbs this weekend.
Merry Christmas all
Hello There!
Thanks for the guide. I am definitely trying the whole front leg ham and the sausage. They both look delicious and those pics are very inspirational. I was wondering if it is worth rubbing the ham with spices and/or introducing herbs in the curation stage (I do it in a vacuum...
You are not only following the right path, you are making burgers that are 10x better than most places that make them in the US.
You are making fresh bread, using REAL cheese, using nice pieces of bacon, and even doing things like grilling onions that look amazing!
The last and most major...
Impecable job...That belly looks truly awesome. I am looking forward to getting a slicer because I usually have a hard time hand-slicing bacon and ham. I am gonna take your thread as a divine signal.
Thank you. I plan on using this thing a lot. I have only ever used charcoal and stick burners before so the pellet game is a new and interesting step for me.
I will be doing whole bone in skin on thighs. Dry rub only. I am currently doing carnivore diet so probably going to go with SPG. Haven't...
I made a video showing whole quick process, takes just 10 min to make then 1-4 days curing.
This is a Filipino dish, a cured pork or thick bacon, usually very sweet, salty, and red-colored from anatto. It is usually used as a breakfast meat and is pretty much considered Filipino Bacon by my...
I bought a pack of Angus beef burger today but forgot to get buns. I thought why not make a meatloaf.
I fired up the smoker as I was getting things ready. Then I placed the meatloaf and poppers inside with a mix of Hickory and Mesquite.
When the meatloaf got to an IT of 85F I added on the...
I have to say I really enjoyed this TD.....as I LOVE steak and cooking steak and all forms so I will admit I cooked a few over the contest time.......The other part I will add is my entry was via.......Walmart....yes that is right for both the steak and tuna......Not sure who is in charge at WM...
I want to thank everyone for their knowledge and help. I have been silently stalking the posts and learning. 2nd batch tried. I think it turned out fantastic. Maple and also cracked pepper Before and after pics.
Thank you.
So I had a bunch to get ready today, beef plate ribs aka dino ribs, chicken wings, and 4 salmon filets. On top of all that I have two brisket that are curing for bacon and 2 brisket flats that are pickling for pastrami.
Let's start with the ribs,
So I got these at the Texas Tech meat market...
I revisited the German bologna seasoning . Pork butt grind , 25 % bacon . Maple sugar cure , extra white pepper and T-SPX starter . Cooked in the smoker .
Great flavor and texture , but the T-SPX won't give enough tang .
You already suspected that , so good idea changing it .
I'm not the...
I tried smoking bacon wrapped chicken thighs last night and they turned out great! I pulled them off at 165-170 and was pleased to see that the bacon was done and had a good texture. My only complaint, I seasoned the chicken and then the bacon after the chicken was wrapped. Slightly too much...
Love Pops simple recipe. I HIGHLY suggest reducing the salt by 25% and using as much red pepper flakes as you desire.
Pops ratio is 8-2-1, 6-2-1 is perfect for me. It's still a bit salty, but in a good way. Kind of like the bacon I make. 1.65% is just enough salt for it to be slightly...
