UPDATE: unfortunately this is not a smoked bear sausage stick making update but another hunting update and not glamourous. I promise that the hunting portion will be as short-lived as possible as this was not my intention or focus on starting this thread. Moderators I apologize, and... -

Quickie: a chef friend of mine is catering a wedding this week and trimmed the fat off a dozen whole ribeye steaks...plenty of fat for me to use as the fat I'll be adding to the bear meat.....plus I feel better about using Fermento as long as I'm using some beef in the mix. Stan over at sausage... -

I was originally going to make her 8'x8'x8' but the lumber they practically gave us was enough for 9'x9'x8' and I thought maybe 8' wouldn't allow the clothesline to spin if I needed it to spin in case of hot spots inside the tent. -

You may notice that the frame is not in the same place as the clothesline and tractor rim fire pit. We decided to build the frame at Darryl's and disassemble it because his trailer is across the street from the lumber shop in town in case we needed something else, like more screws or more beer. -

Progress has been made today....me and Darryl got a sweet deal on crooked lumber at our local mom and pops lumber yard. 168 linear feet for 32 smackaroos. We started and finished the framework in a few hours between contending with girlfriend maintenance and the trouble they get themselves in...
