Garlic is pretty simple. Some varieties differ but the common is to set 2" deep 4" apart. I'll see about flavor differences next July when I harvest. I planted hardneck they grow from Siberia to Italy. From what I read most all the garlic in stores is from China or Cali and is a softneck...
Took home some steel decking drop from work and made some raised beds. I filled them this weekend with garlic, looking forward to fresh next year. This was something I'd been meaning to plant for years.
Jared up some 1/2 pints. The heat is very mellow. They are salty though. I re-read the 3.5% salt ratio. I weighed the pepper and water, if I'm understanding this better, should only have weighed the water for the brine solution. Honestly a lot of hot sauces on the market are just as salty. A...
Very creative. Buttermilk bisques and a bottle to go please. Last month I batched up local honey with diced ginger. Love it in a cup of tea. I allowed it to ferment, in fact it's still living. I tightened the lid early on and she ballooned. Sence then I leave it loosed screwed. I wonder if the...
Just planting the ideas in my head. You all rock. I'm chomping at the bit with 4 types of hardneck in the mail and 2 new raised beds primed and ready. Gonna put black garlic on the short list along with hot sauces for the garlic/pepper combo verities.
Well I'm off. Just waiting for the dishwasher to finish sanitizing. Thanks again for all the info. No feet dragging anymore. I figure if I have to toss a batch, lessons will be learned. The uncut Poblano, Cherries and Naga wont fit this batch. Hmm might order more lids. In the mean time I'll...
Jeff reading through your old ferments I have a question. Are you only fermenting the pure peppers? I was intending to ferment with garlic in the jar maybe some carrot slices.
I see what you're saying on the colors, if all mixed I'm guessing brown would be the final color. Not the prettiest. Yellow/Red/Green/Orange will look outstanding. Thanks for the input. I like the idea of adding yellow bells and orange bells also. I have some orange/purple/yellow carrots growing...
Long time lurker here, mostly smoking related browsing. Then I stumbled into the pepper section. You guys peaked my interest in homemade hot sauces.
My fermentation lids arrived Friday and I picked through the garden today. Kind lost track of what I grew but I think there are Aji Pineapple/Big...
Neighbors wanted in so added a rack of ribs
Trying yellow mustard base (new for me) and a dry rub medley of Wild Willy's number one rub & Montreal Steak.
I'm scratching my head on whether to put fatties on @ the same time or wait an hour. What would everyone suggest?
A few days ago I had never heard of a fattie. This morning I have two resting in the frifge. Off the summer throwdown I picked a couple to bust my cherry with. Thanks BBQGODDESS & Seboke (many fine options to choose from). I twisted up a Greek in Turkey and a Choke mommy.
My first roll...
5th or 6th year with my Napoleon infrared grill. It's far from a slow cooker. It's a sear burner. Combine with a cast iron pan and you fix most anything while camping. The grill has survived many trips onto the ice fishing, towed in a sled behind a snowmobile. I cringed when I wrote the check...
Hi all, Jeff here. Not real experienced in smoking. I have a few things under my belt. I cook on a Brinkman LP wet smoker. I'm looking forward to expanding my horizons with some help from you folks.
