    HOT!!! Habanero Summer Sausage with Lava Jack

    BINGO......all looks legit except that Keystone <grin>.......a good hab cheese SS deserves better, no? So, funny, but that hab SS is on my short list to do. Have a recipe I'm sitting on to try out and just need to pull the trigger on it. The money shots look terrific and nice to see you like a...

    London Broil 6/12

    yes, that can be a fairly dry cut for a long smoke. I use that cut a lot for making jerky since it has very little fat in it. Perhaps try a chuck roast?.....

    First time smoking St. Louis pork ribs...thoughts, tips, advice?

    all good advice above.....spot on, actually. I never foil anymore, unless a wild hair needs satisfying. I did some recently in my pellet pusher and IMO were some of my best ever....250 degrees, meat side down first and flipped at about 3 hours in, no spritz, no foiling with just a dry rub...

    Rec-Tec or Louisiana Grill?

    Sorry, I know zip about Louisiana but have heard nothing but good things on Rec Tec. I seriously considered one for myself but decided on the Char Griller pellet pusher since I could pick it up avoiding the ship charge. Seen Red has one on it and should be along shortly to comment....Willie

    Masterbuilt Dual or Not?

    propane much easier to work with....charcoal gives you that hands on feeling that can get old tending to it almost constantly. I had a Master Forge double door gasser and had decent results with it. Often difficult to maintain consistent temps with it though, especially in winter. There will not...

    Lean_ish Sausage Part One

    I wouldn't think you'd have any problem with hog casings but perhaps you have a butcher locally that could sell you a length or two b4 buying a whole hank. For an alternative you could try using corn husks like for tamales. I did after watching an episode of DDD and they came out really good and...

    Smoked Tri Tip Roast

    well done...love me some TT.....me thinks I'd pull at about 120-125, then wrap & rest for 30 minutes or so.....I def prefer TT on the 'rare' side of MR...but that's me.....the other half is a semi-cannibal too so it works....Willie

    GMG vs WSM

    I've got a regular grill in the arsenal and a Smokin' It electric and then I could not resist the call of the pellets. After seeing the GMG's up close at a feed store I decided to go with a Char Griller pellet pusher from Lowes at about half the cost (when I got mine last year) for $450 and IMO...

    Italian Bread..... Second loaf after overnight in the fridge.....

    Morning Dave....yeah, KA is da bomb for flours & such. I hate wal-mart, however, the store by me has many of the KA products as well as Daves Red Mill stuff...another fine product. And, you're correct...bread making, especially using a sour dough starter, can become as addictive as smoking...
