    Carp ?

    Growing up I ate carp several ways.  Nothing wrong with it either.  My Grandpa smoked it and it was good.  He also pickled it  which I wish I would have learned how he did it ( Didn't use a recipe)  Anyway he would make a brine of saltwater, enough salt to float a egg and put a little liquid...

    Wild Boar Hams

    0 degrees f ? Freezing is 32 degrees f do you mean 0 degrees c? And does a standard freezer get to zero f ?  I know we have some at the lab that do but they are special freezers.

Mostly Baby backs but 1 pack of spares.  Going to feed some buddies and their families that helped me so far on a Fire Pit patio project.  I took a pic with my phone and thought I would post it since I haven't done one in a while!

    Zucchini Mustard Relish

    I made a batch without sugar and added some garlic. So we will see.  Not worried about no sugar, dill pickles don't have sugar and the vinegar is acidic.  Plus I pressure canned them! Mark

    Would you foil a boston butt?

    I have foiled before in one of those foil pans.  Hit it with some apple juice just before foiling the top.  You are right it kills the bark, but the juices you get are to die for!  I like to add them back after skimming off the fat to the pulled pork. Mark

    Zucchini Mustard Relish

I am not much for the sweet relish  (Wife and kids like it though)  I am thinking maybe today I will try another batch, but leave...

    Bradley digital and cold smoking

    I got one of Todd's AMNPS and tried it in the Bradley yesterday for the first time. Did some cheddar, swiss and string cheese. It really did a nice job. But I had the cheddar and swiss melt through the rack a bit.  I was suprised that it was warm enough to do that. Maybe I smoked it too long as...
