    Fillet cheesesteak

    Tenderloin cheesesteak is mighty high eatin.' That's a hella' deal on tenderloin. The best I ever see around here is $9.99/lb. and that might come from "retired" dairy cows.

    Fragged My Smoker (Electrics)

    Sounds to me like a good opportunity to scrap the M-built electronics and get a PID controller.

    Question about vacuum sealing

    I will use the vacuum sealer when I am going to let the piece of meet marinate with a dry rub overnight or so. BUT, don't pull a full vacuum. I just pull most of the air out and then seal the bag.

    Looking good. We are having pastrami sammies tonight from the last batch we made.

    What am I doing wrong? Tough casings.

    Packed in salt the unused casings will last pretty much forever. Read that link Al posted for how to use and store the casings. In addition to Syracuse, The Sausage Maker is also a reliable source for casings. You can buy smaller quantities from them (I think they call them Home Packs) if you...

    Lining cold smoking smoke house

    I would think on a hot, sunny Summer day it will get a lot hotter than 65f inside and the tar paper would gas off and leave a lingering odor even if you were not smoking at the time. I think your board & batten decision is a good one.

    Post game Filet meal

    That's some plating artistry there. I'll bet it tasted as good as it looks.

    Looks good to me. But. What's up with that empty space in the middle of the plate?:emoji_wink:

    Oktoberfest Brats

    We freeze them raw then cook as needed. Poach them in water with a beer and some chopped onion then finish on the grill.

    Wild and Crazy Things You've Done

    I've got something similar. In 1970 my first ex-wife and I were in London on vacation. One afternoon we decided to go for a walk in Hyde Park. I left my camera in the room since we were not going sightseeing, just for a walk in the park. While there we noticed some people gathering in one of the...

    Lets Make Summer Sausage

    Making me hungry just looking. My last batch was a failure. I think I overdid the ECA and that caused it to harden to the point where only the dog liked it.

    First attempt at Bacon

    Ain't no bacon better 'n homemade bacon. I like to do cold smoked - Bear's "Extra Smokey" recipe is a good one. There are others as well. I seem to have lost my project fridge. With Covid we have been limiting our grocery trips but when we do go we bulk buy and that fridge space gets filled with...

    Oktoberfest Brats

    Here's another request for the pretzel recipe. I just made a batch of Bavarian Beer Mustard and now need some pretzels to put it on.

    Wild and Crazy Things You've Done

    According to my (current) wife the craziest thing I have ever done was an Iron Butt motorcycle ride (1000miles in one day) at 70 years of age. Didn't seem that outrageous to me.

    Wild and Crazy Things You've Done

    Hell, I did that twice. (Second time wasn't any better than the first.)

    Meat Slicer

    I think you'll like the 615. One tip, after several strokes through the blade flip the piece of meat 180 degrees, front to back, so the slab doesn't develop a "tail" on the trailing end. You'll see what I mean.

    Help! MES quit working!

    Is it plugged into a GFI circuit? Here's a thread that might be useful. https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/masterbuilt-tripping-gfi-outlet.300407/
