    My Basement Pork Loin

    Good job.  Looks nice and juicy.  It's gotta be cool to be able to smoke without going outside. I think I would do a whole lot more overnight smokes if i could just go check on the meat in my bare feet and underwear...lol.

    Meat Processing

    I'd like to see it.  I process my own deer, and i'm sure I would pick up some pointers.

    Would this be a good starter Dutch Oven set?

    I bought one of those Academy specials to use for tailgating.  We leave our stuff out when we go to the stadium, so I wanted something cheap that I wouldn't care if it got ripped off.  It's not finished as nicely as the Lodge (rough edges where they knocked it out of the mold), but it is plenty...

    Need to preserve rubbed brisket for 1 week

    +1 for the oven.  It'll still be a fine tasting piece of meat.

    Taking Dixie Grilled Chicken into the realm of smoking??

    I'm with mballi on this one.  Poultry doesn't benefit from the low temps, so if you smoke them hot, you can still get some nice skin going on without sacrificing juicy meat underneath.

    question about lump vs. Stubbs Briqs

    I personally was never able to use briqettes in a smoker environment withouth them smothering themselves out in all the ash they create.  I can run my smoker on lump all day and all the ashes fit in a small coffee can.  You do have to contend with some small pieces, but I find the good far...

    chipotle spam qview

    I take a lot of heat for liking Spam.  It's nice to be here among the brethren who appreciate the finer things in life .  I gotta try the chipotles.  Never thought of that one before.  Nice job.

    It's try at Kielbasa

    It's so great that your kids can take part and actually learn where their food comes from.  They are naturally curious and eager to help.  My daughter never fails to come outside when I'm picking a mess of ducks or skinning a deer.  Keep them interested and they will eat good for a lifetime. ...

    .what kind of ribs are st louis style ribs

    St. Louis ribs are just spare ribs that have been trimmed to remove the extra piece of meat with the riblets on the thick end of the rack.  There is a great tutorial on this site somewhere.  Just do a search and you will find it.  Good luck.

    My Brisket Should Have Been More Tender. Any Suggestions? (Q-View)

    Some briskets are just tough.  You can do everything right, and still get a chewy one sometimes. Try doing the bend test in the store before you buy a brisket.  Grab it and try and bend it.  If it's pretty flexible, you can usually count on it getting tender.  If it's stiff as a board, put it back.

    Brisket from Walmart. Any good?

    I think they are the vacuum packed whole packers like you get at Sam's.  As long as they don't say "enhanced with a ....solution" on the label, they should be fine.

    What wood to use for building a raised outdoor container bed

    I don't pretend tobe a gardening expert, but I can't see the harm in using treated wood.  I've seen hundreds of raised gardens and flower beds using RR ties.  And like AK1 said, wood doesn't get any more treated than that.

    The wife put me on a diet!

    I'm with mballi on this one.  Try the low carb diet.  It's a carnivores dream.  All the meat and green stuff you can handle.  You just have to give up the bread/pasta/rice and sweets.  I'm on the South Beach diet as we speak and have dropped about 25 lbs.  You can get the book at Walmart for...
