    Sausage newcomer

        Made my 1st batch of sausage a few months ago.  First batch was totally forgettable. Dry, hollow, meat in a tube.  Even the dog had trouble choking it down.  Not a good start, but still.  Did a little more research, talked to out local butcher, who makes sausage from scratch.  Gave me a...

    Pit Barrel Cooker Question

         I've had barrel cookers for what seems like forever.  The old style, where we just cut a square panel out of the side, to load more briquets or lump,notched out the rim for the rebar, hung our chickens, tri tips, or whatever, and let it rip.  An old steel for the fire basket, more then...

    Hail, from the upcoming state of Jefferson!

         Glad to have found this forum.  Been a fan of BBQ all my life, started with what is now called a UDS smoker.  We just called it a barrel.  But have progressed to making sausage, the last few months, just to change things up and keep the hobby interesting. A fishing buddy got me started, by...
