I did some ribs a couple weeks ago for a carry in at work. I smoked them all the way the day before, 2-2-1 for baby backs, and brushed them with sauce. I cut them into individual ribs that night, and threw them in a crock pot bag, and in the fridge. Next morning, put them in the crock pot to...
I've seen a lot about these but don't have one. I finished some SS in a hot water bath last weekend on the stove and it worked fine.
Am I missing something on these units? I know they are expensive. I think I would just do sausage the same way I did.
Man, after 4 days straight of smoking meat, going back to work today was brutal. The addiction is real. So real I was thinking how I could streamline my sausage making process.
The local grocery has pork butts on sale for $1.19/lb. I decided to pick up 2 on the way home. I plan to grind...
Haha, I'm okay on freezer space right now. We have an upright freezer and a fridge freezer combo in the basement. Those are in my domain, and the fridge freezer is basically a beer fridge, and used to hold all of my smoky goodness.
Have a baby due in March, so don't think the wife will allow...
I'm still fairly new to smoking sausage, but from what I've learned, if no cure is being used, you need to follow the 4 hour rule. Meaning the meat has to go from 40 degrees to 140 within 4 hours to ensure there are no issues with things like botulism.
Some of the others here can chime in...
Very nice. I hope you have a large grinder with that amount of meat. This may be your first part, but your definitely no newbie. Not with a smoker like that.
Eyeyeeeee. How long does that take? You guys did a good job of hiding the beer cans in these pictures. A batch that big would require more than a couple blue cans to finish.
Dangggggg!!!! 300 racks. Is the smoker your building going to be on a semi trailer?
Whatever you do, I hope you take pictures and share on this site.
Also, is someone going to use the smoker commercially for a business after said ribfest?
Please tell me you have something more than a 5lb stuffer, aND a meat mixer.
I'd like to know what kind of equipment you have. I can't imagine making 150 lbs of sausage at one time.
It all looks great though
Well, this weekend has been a smoking marathon for this guy. Friday morning-smoked cheese. Friday afternoon-smoked snack sticks. Saturday-Stuffed Kielbasa for New Years. Sunday- Smoked Kielbasa and Summer Sausage...... and for today. .... Smoked Chicken Wings.
I fired up the WSM for a quick...
I really liked the kielbasa, I'm thinking maybe andouille. I've been meaning to make some jambolaya, abs that would go perfect in that.
I also have some snack stick seasoning coming from a butcher shop near my hometown. Best snack sticks I've ever had.
But I looked into the UMAI dry...
