    Alpha-gal Syndrome

    Thats mighty nice of you, have been lucky to not catch more than Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, I am more mindful of ticks these days as they are more prevalent since the deer population started up in the early 70’s, some call them tick totters for a reason

    fire bricks to replace water pan in vertical pellet smoker

    Keep some tupe of pan there, grease will over flow quickly, it’s amazing the amount of fat that comes out of meat.

    Disposable or reusable pans?

    I have tried multiple liquids in the pan and could never taste a difference in the meat no matter water or fruit juice, pretty sure weber is trying to stop grease fires which can happen to any pellet smoker

    are some meats just not injectable?

    A jacarrde (sp) ran over it and then bagged overnight with the liquid, have made several messes over the years, some saran wrap over it before injecting helps keep the mess down :emoji_laughing:

    Need some cajun gumbo help

    Been awhile since I bought any but Kroger is where I got it from last, they have a pretty good variety these days. Also use to sell a powdered rue also, there are some commercial brands that can be found also in resealable glass jars so you can use what you need and maybe get a couple cooks out...

    Need some cajun gumbo help

    I actually prefer a lighter rue, it can get bitter if not careful trying to make the perfect batch, I like to make rue with butter most of the time but seen a lot of folks say they only use it to make seafood dishes

    Freezing Meats???

    The only thing I don't vac is ground meat, large items tend to freezer burn less, I will pull out steaks or roasts thaw and grind. I have been vac sealing for probably 25 years, 2-4+ deer a year, meat is still good 2-3 years if vac not lost.
