    Almond wood?

    Haven't tried Almond yet, but with a nutty sweet smoke, it's got to be good on pork or poultry. Most of the nut tree woods I have tried have been great. I would use the flavor of the nut as my guide. Since almonds have a pleasant sweet mild flavor, I would assume the wood smoke to have a...

    Water PAN Yes Or No?

    I've never used water in the water pan either. I'm with Al and think it's time to give it a try. If Nepas is usin' it, it must be beneficial.

    Thanks for the reply g. I was looking for information for a beginning BBQ'r in St. Louis area.

Thought if there...

    Need some info from folks in the St. Louis area.

    Are there any BBQ supply stores in the St. Louis area? There are a few that I know of in other areas, but can't seem to find anything in the St. Louis area. I know there are many mail order suppliers where you can get just about anything you need, but I'm looking for any walk-in retail stores...

    Meat to fat ratio when grinding Sausage.

    Dan, glad you found a good scale. OXO makes good quality products. Your gonna use it constantly and won't know how you ever got along without it. Sorry to here your Hy Vee's aren't too good down there. Not too bad here, but a bit pricey and not many cuts I usually use for sausage or...

    Driving in Chiang Mai Thailand

    Holy Moly, where's the truck to scrape up the road kill? Kinda reminds me of Saigon back in the day! I thought they were nuts, too. Scooters and bicycles everywhere.

    Salt curing hams (prosciutto )

    Cycletrash & Dave54, lookin' good there guys. What's left in the process, now? Just controling the humidity, keeping the air moving and waiting? Can that be accomplished by the use of a fan and a dehumidifier, or is it a bit more complicated than that? Looks like you've got an excellent room for...

    BBQ Pit Masters

    I don't really care much for BBQ Pitmasters. After the first season, it's pretty boring. My favorite episode in, I think the third season, was when Kyle from The Slabs shot Mixxon the bird. That was hilarious. There hasn't been any love loss between them for years.

    Meat to fat ratio when grinding Sausage.

    DanielsS I'm from Iowa too. I usually get my prok butts from Walmart ot Sam's Club. Walmart's come individually KryoVac packed and Sam's come 2 to a KryoVac pack. The 80/20 ratio is usually pretty close. I've had good luck with them. I tried Hy Vee's pork butt, but I found them to be over...

    2011 Looking Back

    Now that you mention it, I do believe I recall seeing several handfuls of those wonderful little suckers being shelled and consumed by yours truely. As a matter of fact, I'm munching on a few of the Seemore's myself, at the moment. Addictive ain't they?

    2011 Looking Back

    Nothing short of breath taking, isn't it? Lots of "really gettin' after it" sausage makers 'round these parts, but nepas is simply "over the top". One might get the impression that he just likes makin' the stuff. However, if memory serves me correctly, I seem to recall actually seeing him eating...
