    Polish Sausage recipe recommendation

    On the subject of soy protein concentrate or fat-free dry milk.  From what I read this is a binder to help hold the ingredients together.  I don't see this called for in any of the Polish Sausage recipes.  Is this an essential ingredient? dave

    Polish Sausage recipe recommendation

    I bought the book "Polish Sausages, Authentic Recipes and Instructions" by Marianski along with the meat curing book.  Really good read. Anyone here use any of the recipes before?  I'm looking for recommendations.  I'm thinking the Sausage Links, page 172 or Bacon Sausage page 174. Other...

    What's your occupation?

    I'm an electronics/computer geek and for the last 6 years I've been consulting as an electrical engineer for the electronics industry.  Mostly computers, cells phone and video processors.

    Butcher pre-sliced the bellies, now what?

    So to cure sliced bacon, what times are we looking at?  I've only done a dry cure, and do the x days per inch thing.  How do you know you have cured long enough? thanks, dave

    Butcher pre-sliced the bellies, now what?

    All, I was talking to my brother and he told the butcher he wanted the bellies to make bacon.  The butcher sliced the bellies into bacon slices, but it isn't cured or smoked. Ideas on how to salvage the bacon?  Can you wet cure sliced belly, then smoke it? not sure how to proceed. dave

    Electric UDS Smoker Questions

    I made my UDS with a1.5"air intake. That way I can go either electric or charcoal depending on what I want. Just run the electrical cord out through the air intake. I use a AMNPS with the electric to do bacon and such when I only want low temperatures. Works really well. Good luck.

    A-Maze-N Pellet Smoker Review

    I made another great batch of smokey bacon this weekend with my buddy as he wanted to makes some after tasting mine.  As I was setting up the AMNPS I was wondering how the depth of the pellets vs. the length of them affect the smoke generation. My initial thoughts are that the length of them...

    BBQ Guru

    Not sure how many of you are DIY types, but I'm in the process of building three of these: http://tvwbb.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/9270072103/m/5721075126/p/1 I have a BBQ Guru, but will hopefully be retiring it after I get this wireless version up and running.  I use my Guru when cooking over...

    Potential UDS build

    Castor oil is a laxative if you drink too much of it.  I use it in soap making all the time because it makes a wonderful bar of soap. I don't see any reason to not use them, just clean it or burn it out.  A lot of people use ones with transmission fuel, mine had antifreeze in it.  These ones...

    Help Me Pick a Smoker

    I ended up building a UDS because I don't like to bend my ribs or have to cut them to get them to fit and 18.5" is just too small for spares.  I didn't want to spend the $$ on the 22.5" WSM.  Building the UDS took an afternoon to complete, but most of my time was figuring out how I wanted to...
