    Is this stuffer any good?

    Just got mine delivered yesterday. My boss gave out 'end of tax season' bonuses; mine was an Amazon gift card. I did offer the card to my wife to see if there was anything she wanted with it. She said no and that I could order what I wanted.  I have been looking at both this one and a LEM for a...

    MES 40 croaked today

    I have been asked to tell everyone where I got the high temperature female push on terminals to fix the ones that corroded. I did have to guess as to what size wire was used in the MES, and what I got was actually too big. I ended up bending the wire over and doubling it up. It was almost too...

    MES 40 croaked today

    Just an update: The high temp connectors came in and I finally was able to attach them. I cut the wires back a bit so that there was good wire contact and cleaned the contacts on the element. Before replacing, the unit was producing 20-60 degrees lower than the display showed (according to the...

    sausage filling recipe?

    How about smoking some Kosher salt and substituting that in your recipe. Also, I have re-smoked bacon for eating (wonderful!); maybe try using that in your sausage mix (after cooling, of course)

    Sausage with precooked meat

    Sounds really good! Could you smoke them as well?

    Sausage with precooked meat

    It was just fried with some rub/salt/pepper. My wife thought it was about to go bad and cooked it up. I vacupacked it and put it in the freezer. I have put some on wooden skewers and grilled it; came out pretty good, but was hoping to try some in sausage. I will look up Boudin and see what I can...

    Sausage with precooked meat

    Hi. I ended up with about 5lbs of cooked, cubed pork and was wondering if there are any recipes to make sausage with it. I have searched, but either they don't exist, or I am not using the right search terms. Any help would be appreciated.

    MES 40 croaked today

    After posting my question, I did some searching online. Found some high temp ones that are rated to 900 dgrees for use in ovens and heaters. They are on the way

    MES 40 croaked today

    So, what did you use to replace the connectors with? I noticed that my MES 40 was not heating and took the back panel off. The connectors were corroded, but the wires looked ok. I cleaned the connectors as best as possible, but they really need to be replaced. I only can find the cheap ones made...

    AMNPS question and some qview

    Again, I have to say thanks to you Dave. After seeing your example, I decided to take a closer look at my set up. I realized that I probably had too much flexible pipe between the mailbox and MES, so I shortened that down to about 6". Then I drilled 2 more holes down lower in the door of the...

    AMNPS question and some qview

    Thanks Dave. Most of the setups that I have seen had the exhaust go out the top of the mailbox, so that is what I did. I also put 4 1/2" holes in the door and drilled out the 4 mounting holes in the floor to 3/8". I also removed the chip loader assembly from the inside, and the exhaust vent so...

    AMNPS question and some qview

    I have used several computer fans of different sizes and ac adapters of different voltages (lower voltage means slower fan), both outside the mailbox blowing in and in the vent stack (modified with elbow and 18" stack) to pull air through. When using these, the meat would always seem to dry out...

    Older metal Kitchenaid meat grinder questions

    Well, I decided to try the plastic stuffer tube kit ($9 on Amazon). They came today and it looks as though they are going to work ok: I will update after actually stuffing some sausage.

    AMNPS question and some qview

    I think my problem has been that the pellets are cooling down during the cold smoke process. I have been experimenting with ways to keep the pellets warm and may have hit on something promising. I am using the heater element from an old electric fry pan in side of a metal computer case, and then...
