My Bacon not like 'Commercial' Bacon
What I have made is with the basic guidelines I have found here. I have made both belly bacon and BBB. I have done wet cure and dry cure. The last time I used some real maple syrup and it added a little something extra, but it also wanted to burn when frying. It did a little better in the oven... -
My Bacon not like 'Commercial' Bacon
How come our homemade bacon does not taste like, or smell like ‘commercial’ bacon. I’ve made bacon a few times, following the recipes and tips I find here. It is ok, I mean it is a nice pork product that I hand-made, and it’s good, but it doesn’t have that bacon smell or taste that is... -

Smoked chucky.
Was gonna start a new thread, to ask how long to smoke a Chuckie, but hey looks like Steve has it covered! Have a 3.36 lb Chuckie, picked up from HEB today for $2.97/lb. Was wondering about how long in the smoker, considering serving at 5:30 PM. I think I will put it on around 1000 and go from... -
New from Algeria
Welcome! I worked in Algeria in ~1997-1998. Deep in the Sahara in the oil field! The smoker you pictured is a vertical style. What do mean, horizontal? There is lots to learn, but with some basic tips and equipment you will be on your way. Probably #1 rule to great BBQ is “low and slow”! Rick -

Second attempt at curing bacon
When you say solution, is it a basic brine with some of it injected, or is it just spices and enough liquid for injecting, then continuing with a dry rub? Commercial bacon is injected, huh? Rick- Cody_Mack

Second attempt at curing bacon
Congrats on the Bacon production! You have the passion and you will do good as you move forward. And highly recommend to go ahead and invest in a decent thermometer unit; remote, measures grill temp and several food temps. It has taken my BBQ game, and cooking in general in fact, to a whole...- Cody_Mack

Catfish
For sure! My Dad introduced me to catfish steaks when I was a young adult, and I will never forget the flavor. He got them frozen at Safeway I think. They were very large in circumference, and about 1” thick. These were surely big river cats; I think they were imported from Brazil. Simply...
