    Cast Iron Biscuits and Gravy

    Nice job! We have been doing B/G forever around here. My kids made it a Xmas morning tradition and both were terribly upset when i announced one year that I was going to do a breakfast casserole instead! Needless to say they got B/G!! Grands and Mrs. Whites frozen in a pinch but nothing beats...

    Meatloaf Anyone?

    Used a recipe my wife uses but added a rub seasoning to the loaf prior to putting the bacon on top and a slathering of Sweet baby Rays original. Foil on the bottom was to keep it from sinking into the rack of the smoker. I don't have any of those fancy pans for these yet! @konk Looking forward...

    What have I done wrong?

    I used 3 pounds of Venison burger 90/10 and 2 pounds of ground chuck 80/20. The sticks have decent flavor and are moist. If you roll a piece between your fingers the fat will squeeze out.

    What have I done wrong?

    Had 3 trays in the smoker each with their own probe and an additional CC probe along with the smokers probe and therm. CC never got over 170. All the trays stayed within 4 or 5 degrees of each other!

    What have I done wrong?

    Does anyone know the effect of sodium erythorbate if you mix and then let it sit over night? I read briefly that it acts as curing accelerator reducing the need to let your mince cure overnight?

    What have I done wrong?

    The casing has bonded to the meat, really cant peel them without just ripping them open. The texture of the meat itself is chewy. I don't think its a casing issue but i really don't know!

    What have I done wrong?

    I used a collagen casing. I have them in the fridge now in a brown paper bag. Like I said, good flavor and taste but the texture and the feel are way off! Thanks for the suggestion!!

    What have I done wrong?

    I cooked a 5 pound batch of snack sticks yesterday and they look and taste good but there is no snap to casing and they are very chewy and rubbery. I followed the recipe listed on the jar and also added some ECA prior to stuffing and smoking. I weighed the seasoning to 4 ounces and then changed...

    St Louis Ribs

    Would using the wrong side of aluminum foil have anything to do with it? I have heard folk talk about shiny side in or out. I am just trying to learn!

    Meatloaf Anyone?

    Does the Hot Italian tame the venison? I mixed a batch of snack sticks while I was cooking the meatloaf and just stuffed them today. My fry pan sample was really gamey tasting for some reason!

    Meatloaf - Nailed it

    Nice looking loaf! Did my first one yesterday but didn't get real heavy on the smoke. Definitely on the list to do again!

    Meatloaf Anyone?

    I appreciate all of the comments and likes! I will absolutely be doing them again. I used about 4 pounds of ground chuck and did 2 loafs. Wrapped one and delivered it to my parents front porch! Hated not getting my hugs but these are trying times! I got 3 phone calls last evening so they must...
