    Lets see or hear about the tax refund purchases.

    I'am kinda sorry I got on this thread, as it looks like I got into the makins of World War 2 1/2. But I still love my Temperpedic knockoff. I guess its not much to say for a guy that only makes 29K a year, but then I try to keep it simple in my older years. As we used to say in the 60's PEACE...

    Lets see or hear about the tax refund purchases.

    My wife and I got one of those Tempurpedic knock off beds. This has to be one of the best investments that I have made. No more sore backs, and when I get up in the morning I feel really rested. For 360 bucks it can't be beat.

    Smoke generator Revisited

    Hi All I am going to post this again, as I think it may help someone with building thier own smokegun. Rest assured that these guns work great, but on some windy days (depending on which way the wind is blowing) they can be a real bear. The main concept is the old coal/wood stove draft theory...

    any deer hunters here

    Used to hunt with a handmade Flintlock Muzzle loader, then gave it up and took on a real sport. Mantrailing. Not only do you hunt for them, but sometimes they shoot back. No such than a bigger thrill than to get a phone call at 2 am and get shot at. Now thats sport!!!!!!

    Replacing Nylon Gears on the Grizzley

    Hey here is an earlier post that I have done on replacing the gears on the Grizzley. Although the nylon gears worked fine, I wanted to see if the L.E.M. metal gears were compatable. Well they are, and used the stuffer many times with the L.E.M. gears. Here is the original post and web site for...

    50 lbs of snack sticks

    Actually there was a total of 4 1/2 people working. (the hound counts as the half) Since I was doing the picture taking, and was the only one drinking there was only 3 actually working. The little 5 lb stuffer isn't too bad. Espically considering that a 15 lb stuffer costs lots more. Snack...

    50 lbs of snack sticks

    Yea there a little tricky to do in a smaller smoker. That is where a Smokehouse comes in handy. I love my smoker for pulled pork and fatties and an occasional chicken, but use the smokehouse for the bigger projects. Dennis

    50 lbs of snack sticks

    Absolutely! One thing to remember is try not to exceed 150 degrees internal temp, as I think the casings get kinda tough to chew. Also I find that the Cabela casing don't seperate from the stix, like other casing do. So be ready to get yur jaw exerized.

    50 lbs of snack sticks

    I start at about 80 to 90 degrees for about 2 hours, then very slowly raise temps so that internal temp reaches 150 over an 10 to 12 hour period. In the Lebanon valley we smoke low and slow.
