    Have you made desserts

    Have you done any desserts or confectionaries, or any non-meat thing? I've done a few but I'm always looking for inspiration.

    Australia day lamb shoulder

    Sadly I am out of shoulders; I cooked my last one two weeks ago. Yours looks amazing, especially the last shot.

    Halupkis (Bear’s Birthday Dinner)

    When I was young my mother made this often. I always like it but I HATED the way it smelled.

    Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburgers Sous Vide Style

    I get all of my beef from a local butcher that uses local cows. They only use chuck for their ground beef, and it is ground several times a day. I doubt you can buy some that is over 30 minutes old. Due to this, I have never been concerned with the safety of their beef. I am very fortunate...

    Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburgers Sous Vide Style

    I don't have that issue. My grill is so dialed in and consistent that I can predict doneness every time, with beef anyway. I am always overcooking sausages but they are still great. I will certainly be trying it. I have a list of things to try that I am on the fence about. One day I'll...

    Ultimate Bacon Cheeseburgers Sous Vide Style

    I never understood why people did burgers this way. What makes them better than those on a grill?

    Ham "roast"

    I have access to fat so I may give it a go. I won't use bacon due to the salt. I have been using a WSM more lately but in the cold I use the MES. I may cut it in half and smoke one half.

    Ham "roast"

    It is, yes. My concern is it getting dry. The thickness is what concerns me. I was looking at that thread a few weeks ago. Included with it is some spice packet to use while reheating. I can't imagine what is in that packet. I'll find out in a few days after I defrost it.

    Ham "roast"

    I thought of cutting it up into manageable pieces and make ham salad and maybe a soup, as well as anything else I could think of. I have never liked any type of ham soup so we'll see if I can make one that I like.

    Ham "roast"

    I have a "ham roast" which is just a 2.5-3" thick slice of ham. What would you do with it? Smoke, sous vide (so it doesn't get dry. I HATE dry or salty ham), grill, etcetera? It was dirt cheap, so I couldn't pass it up. I feel like Fred Flintstone when I hold it. Can I get some of the salt...

    BERKSHIRE HOG BELLY BACON

    I get a good price but it is from a butcher shop that sources local pigs. I think $3.69 is good. It is $3.99 at a local grocery store (one of four that can get bellies) but they butcher, no pun intended, the butchering so they leave the belly a mess.

    Anyone Use The AMNS For Cold Smoking?

    I am almost positive that the dust comes out less with the dust smoker but I haven't compared side by side.

    Spice scale

    You need to write something like "larger" then highlight, click the link button and link it that way. It took me a few minutes to figure it out. I almost gave up.

    Spice scale

    I have and love these two. Larger Smaller I check the accuracy once in a while and they have never been off.

    AMPS - Won't Stay Lit (Multiple Attempts)

    I don't have issues with the chip loader completely out. It also helped that I started lighting from the bottom instead of the side/end. Lastly, I load the tray then put it in the smoker while the smoker gets up to temp then light it a few minute before I load the food.

    Amazen or other brand tube smokers?

    My plan is to use it for cheese and other cold smoking.

    Amazen or other brand tube smokers?

    You can doubt all you want but my experience shows that this brand causes the rows to jump unless I am just imagining it. I have tried several brands successfully but this one has issues. EDIT: When he started Todd found an outside source for his dust and pellets. I assume he still uses an...

    Amazen or other brand tube smokers?

    I bought another brand of pellets and it causes the fire to jump rows. Now I have about 20 pounds of pellets I probably won't use.
