    Raccoon problem

    Raccoons will go into the live traps, Duke's raccon traps are best when you need to target them. https://www.cabelas.com/shop/en/duke-traps-dogproof-raccoon-trap I like raccoons, but they are too smart for their own good and thank God they are not the size of bears!!! One killed all my...

    Vac Sealer table.

    1/16" or 2mm grinder plate

    I am looking for a smaller plate for ultra find grind for making hot dogs. I can find as small as 3/16 but I can't find 2mm or 1/16" for an affordable price. The only ones I can find are $50 Seneca river has this one, but I can't find any info on what size grind plate it is. I also do see how...

    Smokehouse jerky ideas?

    I have expanded metal racks in my smokehouse and I was looking to make jerky in it without a lot of additional work. I can lay the meat on the shelves but think they will stick a lot. I was hoping to hang them, but tooth picks and dropping it though wont work. I am not seeing any small hooks I...

    Amish Style Sweet Bologna

    Looks like the recipe we use. Minus the hot sauce I only make it 20# batches. I tried a batch with ECA to try and match the dry cure tang and the citrus is at war with the sugar for the tongues attention IMO.

    New Member researching Smoke House build

    Do not use any pressure treated wood for the smokehouse. Other woods are find expect plywood as they use a lot of glue in it of unknown type. Look up flame out sensors for propane burners so it doesn't become a bomb if the flame goes out. I know it is here in the smokehouse section you just...

    Anyone made scrapple?

    That looks good, I might size it down and experiment with it when deer season is over. Thanks Might try it without red pepper as the "girls" don;t like it spicy. Or maybe both ways

    My Smokehouse Build Journey

    Yes, if you boards are squared on the sides. No if they are lapped. Lapped boards encourage run off also. Traditional siding used tongue and groove type slots. The groove on the bottom and tongue on the top. Or top board over lapping the bottom board. Cedar will naturally help with rot problems...

    I don't know if I am doing this idea this summer or later. But I want to rebuild the fire box to be a double layer vaulted oven. The bottom is for runing the smokehouse. and can exhaust into the top oven and out its chimney. The top will be an oven. The hole to the bottom and have a 1/4"...

    PRESSURE CANNING STUFF... Probably the BEST tutorial I have read on the HOW-TO.....

    The daughter and I are going to experiment with making the wife baked bean recipe from scratch in quart jars. The wife makes hers with lima, and several pork and bean additional and adds stuff and bakes them. Not really looking for her thickness in the can, but like super improved bush beans. I...

    DIY smoker - cookwithmeat plans/construction manual

    Are you talking about this? Looks like a lot of work insulating like it must be using a small electric heat element. Any element should heat a wooden box.

    Pressure Canning Equipment

    I got to agree with Lance, pressure "cookers" are not caners. If you seal with with the instapot, make sure the rings are off so if it gets botulism the top will pop off. Pressure canning is pretty specific to prevent food poisoning. I used to look all the time around here and no one sells...
