    Pepper Jerky & Hot Pepper Jerky Seasoning Recipes

    Could someone tell me where I can get or order Cure #1 and Cure #2 and how they differ from Tender Quick when making jerky.  Thanks.

    First Packer success w/ Q-View.

    This was my first ever attempt at a full Packer brisket and it turned out great thanks to all the experts on this site. I followed all of your guidelines and techniques. My son in law said "this is the best brisket I've ever tasted". Aaww, maybe he was just being nice? But I thought it was damn...

    Parchment paper?

    I got my butcher paper on Amazon. A 900 foot roll, 18 inches wide for $24. More than you'll need in a lifetime. It does come in handy for other things like laying down paper to paint something. Also if you will Google restaurant supply in your area, I also found some there locally.

    Old Country Wrangler

    I made that one out of aluminium gutter flashing I got at Home Depot. I also have some that came with my Maverick. But you can cut an onion or potato in half and insert the probe thru those or drill out a clothes pin or small block of wood. I'd rather measure the air temperature rather than the...

    Old Country Wrangler

    Yeah, I've got a Wrangler. Best offset for under $500. Love it. Only mods I've done are sealing it up and a charcoal basket. Keep your fire small and work up from there. It wants to run at 275. Pic is a recent jerky cook that turned out great.

    Memorial Day cookout

    Maverick ET-733 thread

    I have the same problem with my new 733. It reads 48 degrees in an ice bath and is 5 degrees higher than room temperature. But it is dead on at 212 in boiling water. I'm not really concerned as long as it reads the high temperatures accurately. I plan on continuing to use mine. And maybe...

    It's 3am somewhere (and if only there was pork butt's)

    I the same question and after looking everywhere locally finally purchase some from Amazon. Received a 900 foot roll which is probably more than I will ever use in a lifetime. But it was not that expensive, about $24 on Amazon. Be sure to get the type that does not have wax on it. Just plain...

    Mexican smoker here!

    ANDRES, I usually try to smoke jerky at a minimum of 160 deg F and not more than 200 deg. If you get an internal temp of 160,it should be safe to eat even if you don't cure it with Tender Quick. The higher the temp, the faster it's done but much over 200 and you're cooking, not smoking. Should...

    Good price on Maverick 733

    New Maverick ET-733 I just unboxed reads 48 deg in ice water, 5 degrees above room temperature and 212 deg in boiling water. Is this normal or is it defective? What should I do?
