    How to Cook A Wild Hog?

    Buddy killed a smallish hog at the club last evening. It looked like eating size so we dressed it. I came home with a 7 1/4# hindquarter, a 4# shoulder, and a 2 1/2# loin. I've never smoked or any other way cooked a wild pig so was wondering the best thing to do with the parts? I'm half tempted...

    smoked summer sausage recipe needed..

    Bear's logs are great! I make them using any ground venison left from the previous season going 80/20 with ground pork. Always a big hit and I'm continually asked when I'm going to make another batch.....

    shrimp

    Looks great! Not as cold as y'all but 15° over night with 7" of snow on the ground is NOT why I moved to Charleston! Any sauteed shrimp with crusty bread is awesome for sure....

    Can I slow These Butts Down?

    I'm on the Cooper River - too far inland to get the sea breeze other than in the afternoon to stimulate thunderstorms but can't even get that now days. This too shall pass!

    Can I slow These Butts Down?

    Thank you gentleman. I set it back to 200 for the next 2 hrs, then I'll go to 230 and let 'er roll. What shall be shall be! The finishing sauce and mustard sauce are on the stove top now! Typical smoke for me, I get too anxious to start, stress over the times and temps and then 99.9% of the...

    Can I slow These Butts Down?

    G'morning folks, Doing pulled pork for buddies coming into town this evening but may have gotten a little too eager to get things rolling. Last evening I put (2) 8lb butts to the smoke at 7:30 at 230°. During the night it looked like things were going too quickly and I thought I had knocked the...

    Dried up country style pork ribs

    I've failed at getting right on the smoker as well. Now I rub 'em and cook in the oven for 2 hrs at 250 in a foil covered broiler pan (with a can of beer poured in the bottom). Remove and let em cool down to firm up and grill about 8 min or so per side, basting with favorite BBQ sauce. Always...

    Testing cheap $15.00 wireless thermometer

    I had a similar one but not the same brand - had it for years and it worked great. Unfortunately the other evening I thought I would use it to test how hot my gas grill gets at medium and high heat. Bottom line - it's toast now - should have read the manual and not exceeded 485° - lesson learnt!

    I have the 40" BT and love it. My Droid Turbo works just fine with it though the distance the BT will reach into the house is limited - about 25' for me.....

    Question Re Timing Snack Sticks with Sausage

    Mixed up a 9lb batch of Bear's unstuffed pepperoni sticks yesterday to smoke on Friday. Used 60/30 venison to ground pork. I shot "logs" out of the jerky shooter onto wax paper, then cut them in half length wise, rolled a tad and spun up in plastic wrap. This worked great to get nice approx 3/4...

    Old Venison - use or pitch?

    Cleaned out my deep freeze today - which it desperately needed. Anyway, I have some loin from the 2014 deer season that I'll use for jerky. But, I also have 20lbs of vacuum packed burger from 2014 as well. It doesn't look freezer burned but I imagine it has lost something. I wouldn't use it for...

    Smoked up a Batch of "Bear Logs"

    Thanks, stepped up the heat this time to get a little more kick. The shooter helped me get better shapes than I could get forming by hand but still aren't the prettiest things!
