    AMNPS and dust

    I’m not sure about how your mod is set up but I’m pretty sure as long as you have a couple holes drilled in the door of the mailbox and your damper adjusted properly you should be able to create enough draft for the dust to make smoke. I use a tube smoker in my propane smoker for cold smoking...

She said it was too smoky for her taste so I grab a couple pieces from the middle of the pile and cooked them up , she said they were perfect! My question is does anyone not use the very end of their bacon and if so...

    Tube smoker placement

    Evening all, So I used my A MAZE N tube smoker last week to cold smoke bacon. I have a Masterbuilt propane and did not turn it on. I removed the chip tray and lit the tube per instructions then I placed the tube directly over the opening for the burner. I thought it burned rather quickly ( got...

    ECA questions

    I’ve been making snack sticks for awhile now and just got my hands on some ECA. After reading the directions does anyone know if you need to refrigerate the sticks when finished or can I just put them in a plastic container and set them on the bar? In addition I make large batches 25#at a time...

    Snack sticks

    I just got my ECA from LEM. I’m going to make 17 mm sticks and according to the directions you must add this after everything else and smoke immediately. My question is can you mix this into the meat with a large meat mixer connected to a grinder or should it be mixed in a meat lug by hand?
