bbq pimaster favorite
I don't know, I kind of like the Wood Chick. She's in a male-dominated world, competing right along side of them. When she laid into her ex, that's because he was supposed to monitor the pit, and completely crapped the bed on it. I'd be mad too. LOL That aside, Myron's growing on me a bit...- billm75

Made some pickles...
I'll get some pics up here soon. I've always been bad about the camera work, I get so involved in what I'm doing, I forget all about documenting it. Can't tell you how many recipes I've forgotten because I didn't write down what I was doing. OH and for the cukes, I just bought some pickling...- billm75

Made some pickles...
I wish I had pics to share, but alas, I don't yet. I can take some and post later though if anyone wants me to. Frankly, they look like pickles. LOL Anyhow, I decided I wanted to make my own pickles, kosher dill style spears to be exact. And since I didn't want to have 50 jars of these...- billm75

Considering a Meat Grinder, Need Advice
While I'm a pretty big boy, I don't want to be dead after grinding. I really only plan on maybe 20lbs at a time, maximum. Just enough to keep the boys in burgers. (my 7 year old can clean out Burger King's stash). The other 3 boys will usually pick up the scraps. And for sausage, probably...- billm75

Considering a Meat Grinder, Need Advice
Hey folks, I'm planning to purchase a meat grinder here soon, and would like some input about the one I've been looking at. I don't know much about them, what the #22 means, etc, so I'm hoping you can straighten me out. Here's a link to the one I'm thinking about getting...- billm75

Walmart Packers
If I were catering or cooking competitions, I might go organic, that sounds like a great trade-off. Mostly I cook for the family and friends, so the extra time isn't a big issue for me. I tend to buy the cheaper meats anyways (feeding a family of 6 is costly enough), and Wally's World has been... -
Walmart Packers
My experience with them has been great. I think they're really decent quality, compared to what I had been buying from the local butcher for about twice the cost. I noticed very little quality difference, and they were moist, tender and delicious as they should be after about 13 hours of low... -
Advice on building small smoke house/box
thanks guys, I'll take all of this into consideration. I have been reading all the smokehouse build posts, trying to piece together what's going to work best for me in this situation. I have an offset smoker for all of my cooking needs, so this is really just for bacons, sausages and maybe...- billm75

Advice on building small smoke house/box
I'm starting to plan a build for a relatively small smokehouse/box. Not sure if I should call it a house due to it's size. I'm looking at building a plywood cabinet, about 24"w x 24"d x 36"h. Since I don't raise animals and butcher my own meat, my use of this will be limited to a few times a...- billm75

Tips on Chuck Steak
I'm a huge fan of chuck steaks. The regular chuck steak, the "chuckeye" steak and even the Chuck Filet (a poor man's filet mignon perhaps). What I've found, is that most of these steaks are comparable to NY Strip, Ribeye and Filet Mignon, not quite the same high quality, but definitely a... -
Breakfast sausage question?
So I took the plunge and bought the ground pork today. It was fresh ground pork, thankfully, not the rolled stuff in the mystery tubes. :) I used the Hi Mountain Prairie Sage Breakfast Sausage blend to make this. It was super easy, all in all. The ingredients in this saga. Here it is all... -
Breakfast sausage question?
Thanks for the quick reply, first thing tomorrow, I'm off in search of some ground pork. If it passes the family's test, then I'll be looking into a grinder. ;) -
Breakfast sausage question?
Hey guys, I'm totally new to sausage making of any kind. I cook plenty of them and in doing so, EAT plenty of them, but I've never tried making my own. To start out, I wanted to mix up a batch of loose breakfast sausage and work my way up to links, then more complicated sausages like brats and... -
New to the forum, not the 'que!
Thanks for the warm welcomes folks! I don't always remember to take the camera out to the smoker, but it is something I'm working on. I'll be sure to post results of whatever hunk of meat I throw out there to share here. -
New to the forum, not the 'que!
Hi all, my name is Bill and I'm happy to be a part of your forum. I've been doin' the que for about 10 years now (basically since I got married) and have learned tons from forums like this one. I have a little char-broil offset smoker that I've been using for the past couple of years, and it...
