    Grind then Cure or Cure then Grind

    I always double grind my meat and add cure and spices after the first grind, then mix well and grind again. So far so good.

    Spicy Breakfast Sausage

    I started started out with Pops recipe and also wanted it spicier. I just kept adding more pepper flakes, cayenne and sage to each new batch until I got it where I wanted it. It's still in my notebook as "Pops Breakfast Sausage".

    Disappointed with amount of smoke; bought a master built electric 40" added updated part sent by mas

    My MES 40 had an "issue" when I first got it. Masterbuilt fixed me up right away. I've never used the chip tray for smoke just an AMNPS. The only time that it went out before it burned all of the pellets was when I had forgotten to open the chip tray to let air in...oooops, my bad!

    First time using hog casings

    Hey Was, good morning. I've used those and they work just fine. Just soak 'em in warm water for 30 minutes before you plan to use them. If you don't use them all up just put them in a jar and cover them with salt. Keep them in the fridge and they will stay good for a long time. Hope this helps...

    Any info for a newbie would be greatly appreciated...

    Greetings J, put both of the probes in boiling water and see what they read, then try ice water. That should give you a pretty good idea on the difference between the two. Hope this helps.

    Pulled Pork in a Crock Pot?

    I do pulled pork and brisket in the crock pot all the time. Just finish it off in a skillet and add the spices, onions, etc. then. Haven't had any complaints so far!

    $$$ of Meat

    The best price around here is the "case" price at Sam's for $1.34. I was getting them on sale several times a year for $0.87 but not for the last six months. the only good sale has been whole chicken for $0.77. If anyone is interested, Scarbelly's  "Chicken, Mango, Jalapeno" sausage is great stuff!
