    an interruption in the curing process

    It’s an interesting conversation. In terms of continuing cure while frozen, Marianski says this, “ there is a temperature line that can not be crossed which is 28F at that temperature curing stops”. I agree with him. In your case you had over 5 days in cure so you were fine. I wouldn’t rub one...

    an interruption in the curing process

    You are good to go. If your fridge temp is in the 30’s you should have no trouble going 3-4 weeks in dry cure. That’s usually a better option than pulling early.

    Lyfetyme Smoker—How do I cook on this evenly?

    Check each one in boiling water. The water boils at 212F at sea level and decreases 2* per 1000’ of elevation climb. So find your elevation and test in boiling water. Doing an additional ice water test is good to check the low end. Ice water should settle at 32*F

    Just ordered a grilla mammoth - what should I expect?

    My only two complaints are, the paint fades or oxidizes rather fast (within a year) and my control box was not fit up tight and sealed to the body, I got moisture into the control and had condensation on the inside of the view screen. I had to take it all apart and dry it out then re-assemble...

    Just ordered a grilla mammoth - what should I expect?

    The tube works very well in the mammoth. Loaded with a good mixture of pellets and chips it puts out plenty of smoke. Prop up the inlet side of the tube with the U-bolt mod or I just use a short piece of 2” steel pipe to rest it up on. Burns very well with the air flow in the bottom. Also, the...

    Just ordered a grilla mammoth - what should I expect?

    Flavor is of the pellet grill variety, but decent results can be had with the addition of a pellet tube loaded with a combination of pellets and wood chips. It burns perfectly in the bottom because of air flow. You can also play with chips on top of the heat diffuser (designed for this) but the...

    Glad you had a good meal and Happy belated birthday Hanna. Last time I was at Shanahan’s a few years ago, we had the exact opposite experience as you had in all categories. Never been back.

    Thermometer - Which is best?

    Boiling water and followed by ice water is my test. Water boils at 212 at sea level but decreases 2* per 1000’ of elevation climb. So check your current elevation and adjust from there. Ice water should settle at about 32* so I check both for high and low accuracy.

    Grinding deer meat, die size?

    3/16 to 1/4” is my preferred grind, but sometimes if grinding with silver skin I’ll separate the worst of it and grind that through 1/8” plate, then mix it all together. That’s a good trick in sausage making too.

    What is this thing? I would appreciate any info about this

    No offense Kristen, but without more pictures and details, it looks like a yard ornament. I am curious though about the smoker, just can’t know without more information and pictures.
