    Carne de Res Kalimotxo

    hi, cougar, and thank you, sincerely, for the kind words. i hope you try it and enjoy it. i took a look at your chorizo vasco, and it looks absolutely outstanding. if you don't mind, i'd like to "steal" it in the event i am able to try it someday ~ it looks absolutely perfect, and certainly...

    How many Turkey soups are in progress

    in some ways the thanksgiving leftovers turned out better than the meal itself. here's what i did: i took the turkey carcass and boiled it for a couple of hours, then removed and cut up the meat, defatted and reduced the broth down by half. then took the celery (including those wonderful...

    New meat slicer for Christmas

    Well, I was able to give my new slicer a try last night, using it to slice up my venison "dried beef" project: http://foodsoftheworld.activeboards.net/making-dried-beef-not-jerky-from-venison_topic1603.html Eagerly, I began slicing; my goal was to get the thinnest slices possible, but there...

    Modifying a Totem/Big Chief Smoker with a Hotter Element for Colder Climates and Hot smoking....

    >>>Thank you Totem for not making it perfect so Dave had something to do......<<< lol - ain't that the truth! looks like some great mods here, with very easy to follow instructions. both my little chief and big chief smokers are "top loaders," but i bet it would be easy to incorporate the same...

    calling all little/big chief users.......

    p.s - forgot to mention it, but i really like the "cookie" idea ~ i am betting that works like a charm!

    calling all little/big chief users.......

    hey, dave - thanks for the reply. when we get closer to spring, i might see if you can't show me some pix of your modifications. i love those chief smokers for fish, and it will be about time to get cranking up with that. i'm liking the "cool" smoking that these provide, with the lower temps...

    Canadian Bacon with Morton's Recipe

    hey, casino -thanks for the tips and ideas. the 160 degrees was purely a guess, but i agree that the lower temperature would make a lot more sense, considering that it is a solid hunk of meat. i'll try something in the 147 range and see what happens. one of these days i will have to try...

    calling all little/big chief users.......

    hey, guys - looking for some experiences here to see if they dovetail with mine... i am a huge fan of the little and big chief smokehouses. i have one of each and have discovered that as long as i use them within the parameters of what they are designed for, they are top notch for things such...

    Morton's Recipe for Pepperoni

    sprky - it's worth a try. aq grinder isn't 100% necessary as i have known people to use a food processor to "grind" meat. also, you can use ground burger or pork for this. if you do use any ground meat with fat already in it, you can probably skip the oatmeal/beer thing. this buttermilk idea...

    maple-cured ground venison bacon

    hey, al - it is definitely some good stuff - just be sure to add more maple syrup and some salt to the recipe. if you find an amount that works well, lwt me know and i will modify my recipe! paul - maybe it's a regional thing - we make a similar product all the time up here with beef, calling...

    Morton's Recipe for Pepperoni

    hey, venture - total agreement about the fat - it's just that in this case, i wanted venison-only with no outside meat added, so the oatmeal made a good alternative. casino, thanks for the info - i think i'll definitely be giving that a try. give it a go, guys - i'm pretty sure you will like it!
