Welecom. I live in the Appleton area, but am up in SP often as my brother in law lives up there. What type of smoker you running? Feel free to ping me if you need any help with anything. Also i agree on the sports argument obviously from my avatar :)
Looking at building a curing chamber and wondering what temp controllers you are all using. I see a lot of them where i can plug the fridge in if i get to hot, but do i need a different one to plug in my heat source if it gets to cold or do they make ones that do both?
thanks for the replies guys. I figured it out. It was the metal ribbon that that seals it. It got pulled down a little and must not of been making a good seal. Moved it back up a little and now its working.
LIke the title says. It just keeps vacuuming and never seals. Im using the roles and it seals the one end but when i put the food in it just keeps sucking and never seals. It seems to be getting the air out so not sure why it wont seal.
Anyone have this happen to them??
Just wondering what you guys all do with your bacon after you get it cut up? I have a vac sealer but obviously that takes forever as you have to cut it, seal one end, fill it and then seal the other end.
Any of you guys have any tricks or use other stuff that is faster and or cheaper as those...
Have you tried wet curing before? Ive done it both ways and its so much easier that way. Just need x amount of stuff per Gal and then you dont have to do all the calc every time. Looks great though.

Looking to get a food slicer and wonder what you guys recommend. Really dont want to spend a ton of money on it as its not something i use every day. I want it for cutting up my bacon and maybe some hams and briskets.
Welcome to the party fellow smoker from WI. MES is a great choice for are winters. Now just go check out http://www.amazenproducts.com/Default.asp and get there pellet smoker box and you will be able to set it up and forget about it for about 11 hours or so.
Personally i would blame you not the smoker. Odds are there was air getting in somewhere. And with the cost of remote temp probes being so cheap why wouldn't you buy one for your smoker temp. Then you can have a nice alarm incase something like that happens. Not to mention that you where...
So been wanting to make my own chipotle Powder for a while but without a smoker that i could keep at a low temp its kind of hard to do. Feet Farm had the MES 30 on sale for $160. Couldnt pass that up for bacon and sausage.
Went a got 3 lbs of green japs and cut them in half and scooped out the...
So I got a stuffer for christmas and had a chance to test it out. I was kind of expecting it to go very bad but it was actually a lot easier then I thought it would be. Was the coolest smoking type thing ive done so far I think. Even the wife was impressed.
Question I have is i twisted them...
Doing a pork butt for pulled pork and looking for something a little different then the normal. Usually do a sweeter rub with some of the rub injected into the butt. Then pull it and but it on a bun. Looking for something out there either in flavior or way to serve it.
