    Food Saftey on Beans

    Great to know.  I am a cancer patient so I have to be extremely careful after chemo treatments due to the low immune system.  Any germs or infections can have serious consequences.

    FIRST SMOKED TURKEY ON SOUTHERN PRIDE SC200

    Finally tried a turkey on the smoker (SP SC200 electric).  Going through many posts, I thought I would brine it and cook it like a regular oven temp with hickory chips.  While the turkey was not dry, it was moist and tender but feel it could have been juicier. Here are the steps for my 10 lb...

    COLD SMOKING SAFETY REGULATIONS

    Thanks all for your responses.  I will be selling the food commercially.  There is no issue for the hot smoking as I have been approved for my procedures etc.  Actually, my HD Safety Specialist was impressed with all that I have done.  Apparently, right now there are no guidelines for cold...

    Using Electric Smoker to hold food

    Hi: New in the food business and taking my required food safety courses, it is important to keep your food out of the danger zone (40 - 140).  Certainly you can use your smoker as long as you can keep your temperature in your food.  You can even keep it in a cooler - as long as you maintain the...

    Smoked Peach Cobbler?

    I have been freezing peaches for over a week now.  Peach farm just down the road from me and they are heavenly.  These are for my take-out when I open.  I am planning on smoking the peaches with tomatoes, peppers and onions.  Making a "sweet heat peach" BBQ sauce for ribs, chicken and whatever...

    Smokin' deal on Southern Pride SC-200

    I have purchased the same smoker from Southern Pride new.  I certainly wish I saw that deal - great for you.  I am still practicing on this smoker but so far it has been as easy as operating a microwave oven.  So far I have only smoked ribs and some sirloin roasts.  The tries I have done so far...

    COLD SMOKING SAFETY REGULATIONS

    I have purchased my Southern Pride Smoker which also cold smokes.  I am opening up my take out (soon I hope) but I am the first one in my county to do so.  After several months of dealing with the HD the hot smoking procedures have been approved, but in Nova Scotia there are no safety...

    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SOUTHERN PRIDE ERROR CODES

    Yes, it was a silly probe error code that I could not reset.  Since the probe was an option, Southern Pride programed the smoker for it.  I was going off the instruction booklet that did not have the probe - so I could not understand the error code.  Everything is working now.  I have asked for...

    Smoked Haddock

    I have searched through all the forums and cannot find any smoked haddock recipes.  I am opening up a take out in July and have just received my smoker (Southern Pride).  Haddock is plentiful in Nova Scotia and would like to put smoked haddock sandwiches/buns on my menu.  I have to submit all my...

    40-140 ?

    I am a newbie here and love educating myself on these threads.  I am opening my take out soon and found the information here very very valuable.  In Nova Scotia here, the food handling guidelines still show the 40/140 rule - so maybe it is little different in Canada.  Just like you cannot order...

    Fun Stuff - Theme for BBQ Take Out

    After two years of financial planning, I have purchased a small take out restaurant down the road from me.  My concept is BBQ and will be smoking ribs, pulled pork, chicken etc.  I live in Nova Scotia on the Annapolis Basin and the Bay of Fundy is around the corner.   I am not competing with the...

    Am I the only one that trolls the supermarket for discounted meats?

    Shoneyboy - I sure wish we could get asparagus here for 1.00 lb.  1.99 in Nova Scotia is about the cheapest since it has to be exported.  Yes I had bought many lbs of it when it's on sale.  Have you tried those green bags (you can get them at the dollar store).  I wrap the produce in paper...

    Am I the only one that trolls the supermarket for discounted meats?

    Rocor98 - Glad to see a fellow maritimer bye.  I have been out here for two years living on the Annapolis Basin in Nova Scotia (heaven) to semi retire. Out west I found I was to busy working and just picked up whatever I needed for food - I didn't much care checking for prices.  Now, I cannot...

    Fruit Sauces for BBQ

    Thanks Smokeamotive - your recipe is what I am talkin about.  My first thought trying to mix fruit in BBQ did seem like it would be too sweet but it does actually taste pretty good and not so much fruity taste like you would think.  I read your reviews for the Dutch's mahogany sauce and you had...

    Fruit Sauces for BBQ

    Great ideas - especially the blueberry juice for brine.  I like the peach recipe using mustard.  At my BBQ take out (opening end of May) I would like to have an alternative fruit BBQ sauce in addition to a good BBQ sauce.  I was thinking of putting the sauces in squirt bottles so people can put...

    Fruit Sauces for BBQ

    Hi All: I am a newbie to this forum and have found so many great recipes already.  I would like to know if anyone has made a good BBQ from fruit.  I  live in Nova Scotia and am looking at incorporating local ingredients whenever possible. I made a great mango smoked chipotle BBQ sauce for ribs...

    Split Pea Soup With Smoked Pork Hock

    I just love split pea soup and only use the smoked hocks.  Yours looks perfect!  I believe the secret is to saute your veges as some people do not do this.  It seems to add some depth of flavour to the soup.  My secret ingredient for my soup is to add some chili flakes - not too much.  I also...
