    Roll Call

    Hi Dayln, welcome to the forum. I'm just over the hills to your east in Calgary and while new to the forum, have been smoking for about 10 years off and and on. Learned my basic skills in Texas but this is a great place to learn a lot more. HDS (aka Kevin)

    "Baron Von Schwein" 120 Gallon Horizontal Tank RF Build. QVIEW!

    Wow, great looking build gmasterpfautz and  Cororumex!  I'm totally inspired now. And I just happen to have the same kinda tanks lying in the yard for another project (a wood fired boiler for a hot tub), but now I may have to co-opt the tanks for a RF smoker.  Great job guys.

    1st Canadian Bacon w/Qview

    Did a little sampling last night and it had a really nice flavor. Wasn't overly salty which is nice as in my past cures i've often found the salt content to be a bit overbearing.  Here's a couple inside shots for those interested.

    1st Canadian Bacon w/Qview

    I didn't specifically measure.  My smoke temp ranged from 150 to almost 200 at one point (hard to control temp in my smoker) but it was at or above 150 for the whole time (3 hrs).  Was also cured so I wasn't too concerned with hitting a certain IT.

    1st Canadian Bacon w/Qview

    A few days ago I started several curing/smoking projects, one of which is my first attempt at making Canadian bacon. I am in Canada after all, so I better get this one down.  I started with 2 pieces of pork loin, about 1.2 lbs each. Did a wet cure with cure #1, salt, sugar, a big bunch of...

    Howdy from Calgary, AB

    Yes, I does get a bit chilly in Calgary, especially after living in Houston for 10 yrs. I should toss one of those giant jack rabbits on the smoker. Have one that is always eating our garden. The coyotes tend to eat the barn cats. :-( Never tried smoked coyote, but I suppose there is a first for...

    Howdy! From Houston, Texas YEEHAW!

    Hi Roger, just joined the forum myself today. Used to live in Houston for about 10 yrs and got addicted to BBQ so that is when I started doing it myself. I've away from Houston for about 7 years now and really miss the great BBQ places there.  Welcome to the forum. Kevin
