    Food Safety News Fri 5/1/2020

    For those who can, try to scope out local farmers. With the plants a lot of them are trying to just break even before having to cull their animals which is a dang shame. But that said, you can get insane deals on pork that'll basically get you an entire hog for around $1 per lb post processing...

    Empty store shelves...

    This! Someone came to our office complex to get pizza at a restaurant in the building. It’s one of those giant towers with tons of companies etc. the person ended up testing positive a few days later and my company shipped us all home to work until April. I luckily started stocking up a while...

    Partyq discontinued, digiq might be next

    i agree some of it needs improvement but I don't think that needs to affect every item, unless of course it's that they're making a newer version of the party q. A big reason why i bought the party q is that it doesn't do fancy things, i just need something that can plugin and run my smoker if i...

    Partyq discontinued, digiq might be next

    Man am I glad I ordered my partyq when I did. It looks like it just got discontinued this week and given the price slashing on digiq that might be next. If anyone’s debating on the older units instead of wanting app based now might be the time

    I moved a state over a few years ago, but whenever I am back in town I'm always hitting up Brandon Meats.

    2 spatchcocked chickens - what sort of timeframe am I looking at?

    It's finally supposed to be 60 in MN on Sunday, so I picked up 2 whole birds to try to make for my first time. I'm just curious what sort of time frame i'm looking at for these birds. I'm hoping they're something I could get done in 4 hours or less, but any input is appreciated. I plan on...

    Masterbuilt Gravity Feed

    I’m a WSM fan but man this smoker really has me debating putting it up for sale and buying one of these instead

    Brisket Alternatives???

    I mean you’d have to define “cheaper” as a chuck roast is a good alternative but technically costs more per lb. that said you can buy them in smaller sizes which brings down the cost. An on sale chuck roast should be $10-$12 for 3.5-4lbs. I made one this weekend (4 hours on the smoker and 5 in a...

    WSM vent hole cover options for bbq guru?

    This is good to know. I mean i might just get stuck using the foil, was just hoping there'd be a good reversible option. I do enjoy the WSM as naturally aspirated for the most part, this really is just my solution for dipping out for 2 hours if needed. If we can run off to target to keep my SO...

    WSM vent hole cover options for bbq guru?

    Do you think those could also work? I'm just thinking they're stainless vs nickel.

    WSM vent hole cover options for bbq guru?

    I mean i know it works i just think it looks hideous. Also if the party Q ends up being something I don't want i just want a way to reverse the setup easier.

    WSM vent hole cover options for bbq guru?

    I’m just curious if anyone has better solutions for covering the vent holes when using a bbq guru besides tape. I ordered a party q but I’m not a fan of using aluminum tape. for background if it matters I have no issue doing the process manually except my SO likes to want to go shopping at...

    Trying smoked chuck roast again ... wish me luck

    Some final pics. It turned out pretty dang good. The crock pot kept it juicy but the 4 hours it spent on a smoker for a nice smoke ring and some flavor into it

    Trying smoked chuck roast again ... wish me luck

    Well here we go, I’m giving it a second attempt. The first time it turned out okay, although a little dry since I botched the wrap process thanks to some poor instructions I read. I’m going 3-4 hours today before either wrapping or finishing in a crock pot to try and retain the juices better...

    RIB EYES for SUPPER

    I grilled up some chuck eyes. If y’all haven’t had them see if your local butcher can cut some for you. They’re sometimes called a poor mans ribeye, flavor is identical but the cost is usually half

    Poultry vs beef

    Exactly this! Poultry shouldn’t require less but unfortunately most seem to pre brine. I actually turned down wings at Aldi because they were pre brined in broth, wtf I just want plain chicken
