    Kirby Bucket Mixers

    Has anyone built a Kirby type mixer or any home built mixer?  Question is the bevel on the blades - are they like a propeller or is one blade beveled up & the other side beveled down?  To push meat up one side & down the other as it spins.

    Masterbuilt Advise?

    I understand the sand/gravel idea, but why do some put water or even juice in the pan?  To add flavor or keep the temp down?  Use the pan for a casserole dish?

    Masterbuilt Advise?

    I was given a used 30 smoker, good score because I plugged it in & works.  Questions are - wood chips or coarse sawdust?   How long does a scoop tray last & how many times to refill?  When to use water & how much?  And anything else to get me going.  Thanks to who respond.

    Jalapenos

    When using jalapenos in summer sausage, do you use the ones from a jar or chop up fresh.  If fresh do you boil or roast them to bring out some heat?  Or does the heat come out from smoking & baking?

    The recipe was from before refrigeration & could have hung in the smoke house for a while.  Now we let it hang for a couple days in the frig, cold smoke, then bake in the oven up to temperature.  Tonight I'll post the recipe & you guys can pick it apart.
