    Automatic Meat Slicer

    Get you a decent used Hobart or Berkel. The 1712 I have can do paper thin slices of semi frozen roast beef perfectly. And it can switch into an automatic mode as well

    Hello from the Cayman Islands!

    Wow! Is Chicken, Chicken still in business? Mid 90's we were going to GC almost every year diving. Made it to Pirate's Week one year

    Universal Cure Calculator.........

    The creator of the calculator posted in his original post that he had made that figure a read-only box for safety. I think the web page hasn't been updated to comply with the new versions of browsers. I tried Edge, Firefox and Chrome and they just don't load

    Universal Cure Calculator.........

    Just wondering what you point is. The DD calculator is meant to be used all the way through, using the converter for pounds to ounces (in my case) then inputting the results in the calculator, adjusting the salt and sugar amounts to your tastes, then making the cure using the three results based...

    Kingsford Pellets

    Kingsford works very well in my Smokefire, And my AMAZEN smoker tube in my MES40 smokers. No more ash than other pellets

    Will an Amaze-tube combust.

    The tube puts out a lot of heat by itself. I can put it in my MES40 and even though it's the only thing with heat going on, my pork bellies will start sweating after several hours.

    Looking for new slicer

    I looked for a slicer on craigslist for a couple of months. I do about 200 lbs of pork bellies/bacon each month and a small slicer just literally couldn't cut it. I found a Hobart 1612 for 150$ and grabbed it. Needed minimal clean up and lasted until our house fire melted it down to an aluminum...

    Weber SmokeFire

    I had both the Masterbuilt 560 and 1050. They work very similar to the Chargriller 980 as they're gravity fed. I'd compare the gravity feds to a bruising football lineman and the Smokefire to a deft tight end. You actually have a fire going on in the gravity feds, where, after the initial...

    Weber SmokeFire

    I've had the SF EX6 now since last December. I've run the gamut of poultry, beef, pork, pizza. Brisket slow smoked. Greasy duck smoked. Ribs both beef and pork. Chicken of all cuts. With the exception of the briskets and duck, I never use a drip pan. Never have had any type fire except that...

    My Bacon, Again

    Not a lot of work, really. Initial application of cure for all the meat at once takes about an hour or so for 230 pounds Takes 3 days to smoke the cured bellies 10 days later, then an extra day to finish slicing. Total working time maybe 3 days. Not bad at all

    Newly purchased Masterbuilt 1050, first smoke - running in to issues

    Spray a little WD40 into the switch. Sounds like it might be sticky

    Newly purchased Masterbuilt 1050, first smoke - running in to issues

    I would check the charcoal hopper when the temp starts decreasing. Sometimes the charcoal will bridge, causing the stoppage of the charcoal feeding properly. You can also do a check on the door switches first my making sure each sensor is fully seated in the back of the controller. Still no...

    Newly purchased Masterbuilt 1050, first smoke - running in to issues

    This is the first mistake people do when comparing an instant read thermometer that is not pid controlled against an on board temp readout. The controller works just like your home oven. You set it at 350, but in reality the temps vary widely both up and down. Do this: put your Signals probe in...
