    Sourdough starter ?

    I'm a newbie to sourdough starters too. We started ours last month. I fed it for a couple of weeks before trying some San Fransisco Sourdough Bread. It turned out pretty good too. I think the trick is to get the starter strong and stable before using it. Ours lives happily in the fridge now. We...

    Bannock

    Cheese Making?

    Does anyone make home made cheese here? I don't mean smoking cheese already made. I mean making cheese from scratch... Jon.

    Home Brewing

    We are home brewers. We don't do a lot of beer but my wife likes the lighter beer so I make what she wants most of the time. Generally a light American Ale. My addiction is making wine and mead. We make several batches a year from the grapes in our mini home vineyard and locally grown honey. We...

    Thinking about starting to brew

    I haven't read all the replies to this thread but I would recommend against buying one of the those little Mr. Brew kits. If you really want to try it I would suggest you look up a local brew store. See if they have a brew night or a free brew class on the weekends. Go to the brew night or class...

    Who has a kegerator?

    We've got one. But I don't think I have any pictures of it. It holds 6 or 7 corny kegs. We only put home brew in it. Jon.

    Bannock

    Anyone here ever make any Bannock? It's a type of bread. It's usually made on the trail while hiking or in camp when traveling weight needs to be kept low etc. It doesn't have yeast in it but there are countless recipes and variations of recipes to be found... So, do we have any Bannock fans...

    Scotch Eggs

    Wow, I didn't think there would be any replies to this thread let alone two pages of replies! I guess I'll have to try a few Scotch Eggs in the smoker when I try a Fatty! Jon.

    Kegerator - Retrofit

    I'm curious to find out how this works out in the end. I'd also second the recommendation to make sure everything is as clean as possible. Make sure all the fans are working, cores are cleaned on both sides, drains aren't plugged etc. We have an old freezer from my grandmothers last truck stop...

    Scotch Eggs

    This probably isn't the right place to post this but I'm not sure where else to put it. Scotch eggs are usually nothing more than a peeled hard boiled egg wrapped in a layer of sausage, then rolled in bread crumbs and deep fried. But I would image you could cook them on a grill or in a smoker...

    Rollin A Fatty: My Version

    Wow. This is a great idea! I always knew fatties as well, you know... But I really like this idea. I'll have to try it out soon. What are the typical cooking times and temps? Jon.

    **Pepper Jelly**

    A pepper jelly thread! Nice. I thought I was the only one who liked pepper jelly. The recipe I use is from the Ball Blue Book. It's pretty basic and easy so why not give it a try... We also add green food coloring to ours so it has that radioactive green glow to it. I haven't made it in a while...

    Pickled Eggs W/ Q-VIEW

    Zapper, I've heard about eggs a couple of weeks old being easier to peel. Actually, I usually end up peeling all the kids Easter eggs and making a big batch of pickled eggs. I know for sure those eggs are a week old or more and they usually turn out perfect. The only draw back to them is the...

    Dutch oven clean-up

    We clean our DO's after camp cooking the same way as our pans. Hot water and a soft scrubber. Just make sure you dry and season everything real good before storage. When cleaning, heating the DO with water in it will loosen everything enough to wipe it clean. Then heat it again to get it dry...

    Hello To All...

    Thanks for the warm welcome guys. I told my daughter about the forum but I don't know if she's stopped by yet. As for pictures I don't think I have too many of our food but I'll keep it in mind. Here's a quick shot from early last summer. One of our typical tailgate dinners while out driving...

    Hello To All...

    Ok, Bassman sent me over here to see how you guys handle smoking meat. And things are looking pretty tasty so far too. I guess I'm supposed to tell you guys about me but I don't know what to tell ya. I like eating more than cooking but enjoy trying new things. I hate fast food period. In fact...
