    Another batch-o-bacon. Thanks SMF & Bear

    Nice looking bacon and smoking setup!! Ya most likely deer its surprising the type of plants they will eat. My father had some property and there was a bunch of ditch weed growing on it. The cattle, sheep and other live stock would never eat it. Only walk through it to knock the flies off. But...

    Buying a chain saw

    I had the same desires of buying a electric chainsaw. I did tons of studying, reading articles and comparing all different models. Ending up getting the MS271 gas and never looked back. If you can afford it buy the professional model and get the MS261.

    Smokin-It #3 cold smoke Setup.

    Group, I think I will can the idea of getting the Bella because of the cost, maybe to much smoke, it gets to hot and I have to drill a hole in my SI. I think I may try the smoke tube or smoke tray instead. * Much cheaper * Don't have to cut or modify anything on my smoker (SI #3) * Suppose...

    Canadian Bacon using a Smokin-It electric smoker

    Lonzinomaker, At 135 do you feel the meat still has good moisture content? I know the loin can become very dry when cooking it fresh. I just don't it to end up dry. I want it to turn out more like a rich smoked ham. I am not real worried about the temperatures. Not saying it cant happen but...
