No worries, I love me some pork. I like to share and not everyone eats pork. Their loss. I usually go to about 150 with a little fat out but never had a total loss like this. Should have just stayed with the way I usually do with the 80/20.
The only thing I miss living out in the sticks. Our electric co-op ran fiber years ago and I had exceptional internet. Moved to town 4 years ago and am stuck with comcast.
Up to a balmy 27 today, shouldn't have to worry about the cheese getting too warm. I've been looking for some cheap gouda for a few weeks now and my wife found some at wally world this past week.
Got it Thursday and unpacked it enough to verify there was no damage. Planning to get it put together this week and hopefully ready to use next weekend. I went through the instructions and there way no mention of seasoning it. I'll call TSM next week and see what they say about it.
Sorry, should have been more detailed. Store bought 10# chub. Still could be a fat smear problem. Would not having a good protein extraction cause this? I went till my shoulders couldn't take any more not maybe not emough?
Used 73/27 ground beef with a PS seasonings mix. Added some additional spices and cheese as I usually do. Put in the smoker at 120 for 1.5 hours added smoke and bumped 10 degrees every hour till smoker was at 140. Pulled and into SV at 137 and ran up to 152. Total fat out, meat has the texture...
That wind is brutal. -2 this morning and 5 right now with a pretty good wind. Probably colder up the road where you are.
Looks like a fine start to a great meal.
Got a call from TSM this morning to verify that I still wanted the smoker and shipping address. They also wanted to make sure someone was going to be there to sign for it. Tracking shows Friday delivery, we'll see given the holiday shipping and the weather moving in.
We buy the white handle knives at Sam's. They have 4 packs of paring a 2 pack of boning and a 2 pack of butcher. Cheap and very sharp, lasting good for now, I haven't tried sharpening, haven't needed to yet.
