    How to get started?

    You got a good oven!  I use my 8" more than any other, next would be my 10".  It all depends upon how much you are cooking.   Google is your best friend to find reviews and best prices.  Always check the pots when purchasing or being delivered.  The pots are heavy and might get tossed around...

    How to get started?

    A 10" or 12" camp DO is a good one to start with.  Lodge is generally considered the best DO, but Camp Chef, Cabela's and other also make good pots.  Cooking Outdoors is on YouTube and has lots of videos that might be helpful.   https://www.youtube.com/user/CookingOutdoors/videos Lodge also has...

    Bread & Butter Pickles

    B&B pickles is one of my favorites also, I buy Famous Dave's by the gallon at Costco.  Once those are consumed I will try his recipe, has to be cheaper and hopefully better than store bought.

    Last of the experimental bacon

    I have all of the TV's in the living room and the smoker is warming up.  I sure hope the Tigers play well.    I made the round Friday & Saturday, seems none of the stores around me carry pork belly, just as well CB is a bit better for me.  Might have to give the buckboard bacon a try. Ya'll...

    Can anything be done with these jalapenos?

    MES 30 - Durability of electronics and covering them

    A furniture mover and a few modifications (hooks & bungee cords) is a safe way to move a smoker around short distances.  Small wheels do limit things a bit. http://www.harborfreight.com/movers-dolly-93888.html  $12

    MES 30 - Durability of electronics and covering them

    Chiefwej,  Thanks for the link. I have the MES cover and it says in or on the box not to expose to sunlight.     I keep my unit in the garage and the cover is for dust only now that I know its useless.  When I need a new one I will check out the one you posted.

    Italian Sausage--Recipe from Bon Appetit

    Nice looking sausages Willie, congrats. Being asked to do more is the downside of being a good cook.   Not a problem if you like the hungry wee buggers.  So what do you think about their recipe?  I tend to want to double the spice level of most that I read and add a bit of something extra..  I...
