    Questions and suggestions for Southern Oregon

    I'm also a newbie on the site, but have built three smokehouses and one similar sized smoker from a lab instrument thing. My smokehouse is virtually identical sized and I use wood to heat it with. I have propane installed as well, and use it basically to get the wood smoldering then turn it off...

    Venison Summer Sausage Suet vs Boston Butt, Temperature and Cure Question

    Thanks CrankyBuzzard. Next time I run these I'm following your advice. I think I could have shaved a few hours. It took 14 hrs in total. The issue I had was the polar vortex had us at -12 and running out to the smoker at 11 pm had my wife in her kerchief and me in my cap as it was quite frigid...

    Venison Summer Sausage Suet vs Boston Butt, Temperature and Cure Question

    I appreciate your guidance as I had just turned up the smoker to 180. So ran back out and turned it down to 170 and ended up 13 hrs, but they turned out great.

    Venison Summer Sausage Suet vs Boston Butt, Temperature and Cure Question

    Another update on my summer sausage. I have the smoker at 170 and the SS is at 135. It's been in there for 6 hours is this okay, or should I raise the smoker temperature?

    Venison Summer Sausage Suet vs Boston Butt, Temperature and Cure Question

    I have quite a few questions, and have read through lot's of posts, but I can't either find the answers or I'm not quite clear on them. #1 In making a venison summer sausage mixed with pork is there a difference in using pork fat vs a boston butt for texture? Last year I made some with fat and...

    Lemons to Lemonade

    It's been awhile, but as with most projects the smoker is 90% complete. My nephew donated some stainless to line the inside, and I found some stainless angle to make some rack shelves. I tore apart a pallet and built some fish racks and have made a few test runs. I still don't have a permanent...
