    Newbie Sausage Question

    Grind size affects two things. One is the chew, or consistency of the final product, and the other is flavor. One could make an argument that since a finer grind exposes more surface area, spice hits more of the meat. The deciding factor for me is the sausage I'm making. A breakfast sausage...

    My Brick Pit/Tuscan Grill Project

    That is amazing! Well conceived and executed. I put brick rings around two oaks in the swale in front of my house, two bricks high! I was slightly proud of that. Until I saw what you made. I'M NOT WORTHY!! Well done, sir!

    Pitts & Spitts

    Sorry folks. Yes, I got the smoker Friday the 27th. I had to go away to Michigan for a week the day after. When I returned, I made a smoked butt. It was outstanding. My wife and I have been eating it since the 5th. Sorry no pics yet, but I'll take care of that shortly. Everything you...

    Pitts & Spitts

    In Orlando, that's 2.5 hrs away! It left yesterday at about 4:40pm. Am I being too excited? OK. I'm gonna sit on my hands. Nope, that didn't work. Was that the phone? Nope. I'll wait. I'M WAITING!! LOL

    OK. Got a tracking number today. It's on the dock at Houston. Should have it by Wednesday or Thursday. I have renewed optimism. :)

    any idea what this is?

    I'm no botanist either, but looking at a simple google search, I'm convinced. That's hickory. 3-2-2, 3-2-2 and repeat...

    Pitts & Spitts

    This is NOT a diss on Pitts & Spitts in any way, but was told 3 to 4 weeks, and we're sitting a bit after 5. No big deal. . . In my last email, he said that he wasn't able to get it onto an LTL line Fri. the 20th, but we're scheduled for shipment on Monday the 23rd. If I told you I'm patient...

    Dry age trimmings - do you use them?

    I think that depends wholly on the length of the dry age. It's just my wife and me, no kids or pets, so I don't go to any extreme lengths to achieve sanitary technique. It's sort-of a given. We don't stand with the fridge open, and the ribeye simply sits bone-side down, on top of a paper...

    Pitts & Spitts

    July 13. I am a petulant child. I grow impatient. I'm ready to go to Sonny's barbecue and get a pulled pork sandwich just in spite of Pitts & Spitts. J/K. I continue to wait. But I grow weary. :) LOL

    Method for Baby Backs

    I've never tried 2, 2, 1. Only 3, 2, followed by never having to go a full hour after unwrapping, more like 30 min's max. It's always worked for me. But I'm all about learning new stuff.

    Why so sweet?

    Sorry, chile. I read your first post too fast, and misread. My second post was an attempt to be polite, and in so doing contradicted myself and looked foolish. Glad to provide you with a giggle. It's good to be happy.

    Bacon Gone Bad - Jowls

    If you can change the setting, shoot for 38. 40-140 is the danger zone, but you probably already knew that. Nasties grow in the danger zone.
