    The Secret To Good Sliced Brisket Defies Conventional Wisdom

    So a very minor update, but in the last 5 years the only change I have made to this is to put the brisket in a pan once it hits 165* just to keep the bottom of the meat from getting hard.

    From Scratch Reuben Fatty

    Why hello yourself old friend! :D Cure the ground meat or cure the meat and then grind? Pulled corned beef just rubs me wrong.

    From Scratch Reuben Fatty

    Has anyone done a reuben fatty from scratch? I want to to do one, but am arguing in my head whether to cure the whole muscle and grind it up vs. grind first and then cure the ground meat. Tell me what you did and why you did it please. :D

    Cold Smoked Hard Boiled eggs

    I would recommend skipping the boiling part and hot smoke them. It usually takes about an hour and a half to two hours at 225*F and the smoke is fairly light when done in shell.

    Thailand Phil

    Last time I talked to him he was in dire straits. I assume he, Ron and Gary are messing with hot peppers that will kill the rest of us.

    What is this film on the outside of my casings?

    Honestly, every casing will be different and there isn't much you can do about it. The effect is hopefully cosmetic only. I have seen some odd casing textures and attribute it to something having to do with the life of the animal and exclude it from the pictures I post. It may not be visually...

    Advise on my new build

    There is a nice lazy way out. Treat the rust with Ospho and then paint over it. You may also want to find a different BBQ paint.

    Is This Normal?? Firebox Door Gap

    I agree with test it and see. If it is a problem you could weld a lip on the non-hinged sides and use some type of stove gasket to get a better seal.

    2014 North Florida Gathering April 4,5,6

    Sadly, I will not be able to make it (again) this year. We will be moving closer to my job which is a good thing, but doing that and going to the NFl Gathering would have been a great thing. Sorry guys.

    Starter culture .. Which one?

    I am somewhat still around. I haven't had much time for anything lately. I am still in the Winston area, but will be moving closer to High Point/Greensboro soon.
