    MES Air Flow Test

    Very interesting, I don't put meat near the hot spot because it dries out and becomes tough. What size tile did you use? I have a 30" MES with no window so cannot try your experiment.

    centro smokers

    Hi I got one of the Centros from Kentucky fried Tire Store a couple years ago. You can get about 4 racks of ribs in them but I have found it better to just do 3 racks because of the hotspot in the MES. You have to cut them in half because a full rack won't fit. I think.........well I hope...

    What do we have here?

    Trav Aquarium supply stores usually carry them. They usually have a thermometer combined with the salinometer. I have one I use for making the brine that I need to raise brine shrimp in. Damn things break real easy.

    a fishy problem

    When doing salmon or large trout, when it is done, You peel off the skin there is sometimes a grey line all the way down the fish. This is a fatty substance that can taste a little off. Take a spoon and gently scrap this grey stuff off and discard it. I agree with what selling the blues man...

    charcoal starter???

    No problem at all. Lots of us have been doing something like that for years with no problems. I see the charcoal chimneys at yard sales all the time. They Usually go for under a buck. Most the time the sellor hasn't a clue what they are.

    Total new

    Great site. Really easy to navigate through it. I have read most of the recipes and I am making the Apple flap using Raisins and Grande Marinier instead of rum. I am anxious to see how it turns out. I have a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the top. I Do like your website but I find the font you...

    "Burnie"now has a toupee

    Good deal, but when I think of Michigan I think of steeply sloped roofs. Hee hee. I see you still have snow on the ground and on the neighbours roof.

    John , I will say a prayer for the safe speedy return of your loved one. Please thank your Marine from me for their service. I almost said for his service then remembered that Marines can be of either gender. Whichever is the case I thank god for those who serve.

    Cooking shrimp

    Shrimp fried in the shell have better taste than shrimp fried naked. After they turn pink you then remove the shells. But don't toss them out yet. Put them in a little water to cover and simmer for 1/2 hour or so. Makes great fish stock. I like to fry shrimp in clarified butter with a little...

    does anyone have a good Recipe for Native fry bread.

    Thanks all. I made a couple batches that at first were not really great but I finally have perfected it to the point where I am ready for a throwdown. I love the stuff. In Omak the normal way they sell it is buttered with cinnamon and sugar sprinkled on it. But it is very versatile and can be...

    Firewood into California... rejected at the border coming home

    Good on ya for standing your ground. The guy probably either admires the heck out of you or thinks you need therapy. Or both. The Dept of Agriculture may be fun to fool with but when crossing the US/Canada border, do not play with those folks, they have no sense of ha ha. In the 1980's two of...

    does anyone have a good Recipe for Native fry bread.

    I get fry bread every summer at the Omak stampede every year but sure would like a recipe and instruction on how to make it. It is a deep fried flat bread , the good ones are light and fluffy sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon. Yum!!

    Naan Bread

    I grill mine over a very hot charcoal fire. I have the girll lowered to almost on the coals. It doesn't take very long. When it shows signs of scorching turn it over. My Buddy does his right on the coals then brushes off the ashes. Not for me. I like the grill method far better.

    How Many Mes Owners Here?

    I have the 30" digital model I got from Canadian tire store for $200. its in its 3rd season. I sure hope it doesn't burn out because I can't afford to replace it. I also have a charcoal burner and a gasser. Each has its place. I even have a small Cobb Charcoal Cooker which gives the best flavour...

    Okay guys lighter fluid or not

    On the episode that featured Johnny Trigg's Rib Cookoff. All the judges detected lighter fluid in Lee Ann's ribs, She thought they were nuts because she never uses it. But turns out they were right. The Owner that loaned her the Big Freen Eggs used lighter fluid all the time and the judges could...

    Selling point...

    RdKnB has a very good point there. In Canada you have to have a food safety ticket to be able to handle foodstuffs for sale to the public. Even to do prep work in a restaurant requires one. By accepting meat from the customer you might get different quality meats, one might be "enhanced" and...
