    Makin Bacon

    Hi All! Iam posting pictures to show How I make bacon. I use the Rytek Kutas method, with some modifications. Instead of honey I used 4 cups of Butterworths Syrup and 1 Lb of brown sugar. I guess you could call it poor mans bacon. http://s807.photobucket.com/albums/y...t=DSCF1050.jpg

    Latest Vacupack

    If you watch the vacupack infomercial he instructs you that on any piercing surface to put a barrier like styrofoam packaging or paper towel over Sharp or pretruding surfaces. I use the bag material from this guy, and never had any problems. http://stores.ebay.com/All-Vac-Seale...Butcher-Supply

    a fishy problem

    I would suggest Cod, Flounder, or Halibut with about a 1 hour mild salt brine. These are cold water fish, and have the good colestrol factors in them. You could always marinate them in a Italian dressing overnite. I had done this with tuna steak, and it tasted fantastic. But if you don't like...

    Salty fish

    I think you may have soaked too long. You shgould always test fry a sample before making. This way you can soak in freshwater to take out the excess salt. I think 1 hour would have been long enough. Brining fish requires less time than other meats. It sounds dumb, as there should be more water...

    tender quick???

    I do mine as Rytek Kutas, Great Sausage Recipies and Meat Curing book calls for. I always use cure in my smoked meats. I go the low and slow method for most of my smokehouse meats, and for my little smoker I usally only make Fatties and pulled pork, which takes a higher temp. Honey cured bacon...

    smoking bacon help

    Leave it out. You want to dry the sides before putting smoke to them. If you leave the pan in, the meat will never get dry. Also low and slow is the way to go for bacon sides.

    Looking for long stem Thermometer

    I bought 4 of these 1 for each wall on my smokehouse. I put them at various heights so that I know what heat stages are in the different heights of my smoker. They work really well and you can calibrate them by turning the rear nut to 212 degs in boiling water. I also use a maverick ET- 73 for...

    cold smoking

    Yes up to and including 70 degrees should be ok. It's not so much the external temp as the internal temps. I think you should be fine as long as it aint anything that requires cure.
