    My turn at BEEF Bacon!

    Yours looks amazing, much better than mine did. You only seasoned yours with black pepper? Mine is good, don't get me wrong, but I think I do still like pork bacon better, so I guess I will have to try again to see if I can improve it up to the standards of the likes of you and Robert @tx...

    My turn at BEEF Bacon!

    Yours looks great! Robert told me I'd have to fry mine up mine slower and longer in the skillet, and he was (of course) right! Yours definitely looks better than mine did, so I guess that means I need to make some more to see if I can get it right this time. 🤣

    My first Beef Belly Bacon!

    I've been curing my own pork bacon for awhile now, but my good friend @tx smoker told me about his Beef Belly saga and convinced me to give it a try. Well, I was able to score some CPM beef belly from him and did give it a try and I've got to say, it's pretty dang good! I've tried a few...

    Following in a friends Picanha footsteps

    Yes, that is where I got the original idea from as I saw that someplace and figured I'd give it a try with the green beans. Came out really good too!

    Following in a friends Picanha footsteps

    So my good friend @tx smoker has been showing off his Picanha and encouraged me to make one, so yesterday I did because I had some crab legs left over from Valentine’s Day, but not enough for a whole meal for 3 people. I happen to have a Picanha roast in the freezer though and some fresh green...

    Making Salami

    First, let me apologize for such a long post! Second, I thought I'd give you all a little history since many of you don't know me... Several years ago I became good friends with a gentlemen who built my house. Not only was he one of if not THE top builders in Texas at the time, but he was a...

    Cure #1 & 2 Volume to Weight per Pound of Meat Chart

    I'm not sure if this is allowed or not, so if not, I apologize and please feel free to remove it... I got tired of going back/forth to my computer in order to calculate how much cure, salt and sugar I needed when curing my bacon, so being that I create mobile apps, I created an iPhone app...

    Slow Smoked Playoff Picanha (Q-View)

    Game? What game, there was a game on? I was too busy working on my Salami recipes to notice! LOL That does look good brother, unfortunately I'd have to cremate some of mine for Dana, but mine would be great just like you showed! I've got a couple of those in my freezer I've been meaning to...

    Reuniting With An Old Friend: Smoked Pepper Crusted Beef Tenderloin (Pics)

    To say it was absolutely amazing would be and understatement. The meal was so delicious, but it was even better being able to spend time with Robert & Tracy again as well as introduce my love Dana to them. Can’t wait to have them over to our place and cook for them!

    Shelf Stable Canning with FoodSaver Jar Sealer?

    Per that link: But dry foods are not the only ones that can be stored with these items. Jams, jellies and spreads should be sealed in jars, then placed in the pantry for long-term storage. This is ideal for those large batches of homemade jam you're planning to hand out over the holidays, as...

    Shelf Stable Canning with FoodSaver Jar Sealer?

    I’ve decided to get into pickling, and I have a recipe I want to do for okra, cauliflower, green beans, pickles, and more. I’ve canned before the old fashion way with mason jars, and a water bath, but I bought the vacuum seal attachment for my food saver, I would like to try using it instead. I...

    10lb Brisket done in 4 hours?

    So here's the results of the brisket for those inquiring minds. I have to say that if it wasn't the best damn brisket I've ever made, it's gotta be damn close! I was so amazed at how wonderful it came out. I ended up doing some research, and I believe what occurred was a) injecting it with...

    10lb Brisket done in 4 hours?

    So you don't think I need to keep it warm in the oven for a few hours at 170?

    10lb Brisket done in 4 hours?

    I'm really concerned it's going to be tough. I placed the pan in a 170 degree oven this morning to hopefully inject more moisture back into the meat as well as tenderize it some more. Thoughts?

    10lb Brisket done in 4 hours?

    I bought a 10lb brisket with Deckle removed from HEB. Started my smoker, cooked it around 225 (sometimes it raised to around 300) and 4 hours in, I decide to check the temp. It's reading 205?? Can't be right, so I tried 3 other thermometers, each reads around 200. I check the meat with my...

    Fantastic idea! Now this one I'm going to try this week. I think I might even do a brisket and hatch green chile bomb!
