    Veggie foil packs

    I am making veggie foil packs for and was wondering if i could write each persons name (sharpie) on each foil pack so i know whos is whos. Each foil pack has the same stuff but then adds something the previous did not have in it. was wondering if the sharpie would come off during the cook?

    Smoked game hen and turkey legs

    I thought honestly a lot more juicy but that could be the brine talking. I would definitely recommend trying it

    Smoked game hen and turkey legs

    I brined some cornish game hens and turkey legs in a dr.pepper brine for a day and a half. Slapped some bacon on top of the hens and smoked 'em at 220 for roughly 3 hrs give or take. Im more of a temp guy then time. So pulled them off and here is the finished product

    First time making bratwurst

    I dont remember the size right now but it was the bigger of the two that came with it. I used the kitchaid attachment to grind and stuff them. I would recommend the metal one. Costs a lilttle bot more but way better than the plastic kit

    First time making bratwurst

    The best part us store bought sausages are so high in sodium. These take that sodium to bare minimums but not in taste. I also used no sodium salt instead of reg salt and really took it down and it did not alter the taste at all

    First time making bratwurst

    Yes but once you add the cheese and water it ends up being lil over 5 pounds. This made enough to freeze some and then feed 6 people. Even my 6 yr old ate it

    What does the skin splitting do to the taste?

    First time making bratwurst

    Really didnt notice the sage at all to be honest. The texture was very good and taste was excellent with a good snap when you bit into them.
