    Buckboard Color Question

    I had heard a lot about Hi Mtn, I thought that was the easiest method.  This is what I get for not asking here first! haha. Every other project I've done I've consulted the magic forum but not this time, live and learn I guess EDIT: Where can I find this wet cure/brine recipe?  I've looked...

    Buckboard Color Question

    I'm doing Hi Mtn.  The air contact thing makes sense since the parts that were bright pink were the parts that had direct contact with the containers (plastic and pyrex).  Thanks for the help!  I'll make sure to flip every day from now on I spose.  I'll also switch to giant plastic bags, just...

    Buckboard Color Question

    I put my buckboard bacon in the cure last saturday morning (10 o'clock EST about) so today I flipped em over.  I'm wondering if either A. My containers were too small or B. I put the wrong amount of cure or didn't coat the bacon enough with the cure.  I'm wondering this because when they got...

    ? on wait time

    I just did my first cheese smoke and tried my cheddar and pepper jack right after smoking and cool down.  It was like eating a piece of smoke (not terrible but not what I wanted) now at about a week and a half the remaining cheddar block is like eating a very nice piece of cheddar cheese while...

    Pellets Vs Dust

    I'm looking at getting an AMAZN smoker and now comes the age old question of Pellets VS Dust.  I have no idea what the benefits of either is because I'm such a noob.  Also does anyone know about how long it takes for the stuff to get shipped?

    BBB Newb

    I will most likely end up frying it.  So I'm guessing running til it hits 140?

    BBB Newb

    So, I've done my research.  Bought my pork.  Butterflied my pork.  Bought my Hi Mtn BBB Cure. And now I'm about to start the curing process. My Next question involves smoking time. In the packaging it says a hot smoke til 140 (paraphrasing here) however, I've seen people going on for as long...

    Scale Question

    That was the plan, but I didn't know if it was accurate enough.  I'm probably making it much more complicated than it needs to be

    Scale Question

    So, I currently am about to make some BBB and I don't have a scale that will read more than 1 lb of meat at a time.  My only other options at this point are to use my bathroom scale (which goes to tenths of a lb and is digital) or to go out and buy one. But at this point I don't have any...

    Hookah Smoker?

    I'm a student... time is my greatest asset!

    Hookah Smoker?

    I wonder if it'd be possible to make a hookah smoker.  Put the chips in the area where you put the tobacco, foil over it, put a hot coal on top.  The only problem would be creating the negative pressure needed to get the smoke through the wands. I'm not going to attempt this but it seemed like...

    Cold Smoke Generator?

    Like I said I just need something temporary while I'm getting into smoking.  As far as getting a Soldering Iron, there are no Harbor Freights in my area I don't think so I'll be stuck with either a Home Depot (ew) or there's Microcenter near me

    Cold Smoke Generator?

    Yeah after I posted I saw some stuff about it, sometimes what words you use to search make all the difference. Thanks, I'll definitely do that for a while until I get hardcore into the smoking!

    Cold Smoke Generator?

    Okay so my Dad and I have gone back and forth for a while on a temporary fix for cold smoke generation and we've come up with a few ideas that I'd like to run past you guys (they call for some builds which is why I thought this was the best forum for it). First idea is to take my Master Forge...

    De-boned Butt

    My biggest suggestion for the boneless ones from Costco would be to tie it up.  Throw some rub in that gaping hole they carved into the side of that pig and then tie it up and treat as normal.

    De-boned Butt

    I got some of those from Costco and mine was about 7 lbs and all told took about 12 hours (with a bunch of rest time after in a cooler).  I have a thread about it, you should read it.

    Veni-Jerky!

    I was attempting 180 because I had read somewhere on the site that that was the safest, but I couldn't get the smoker up to that.  It took all said and done about 5 hours and it ended up a bit too dry and I think I cooked out all the marinade.  I also rinsed the jerky because last time I didn't...

    Good all around cutting/slicing knife

    Any Knife will do really great if you buy quality (cost doesn't always mean quality) and keep it HONED, not necessarily sharpen it.  To hone a knife you use a "steel" which is what you see chefs in movies rubbing their knives on to keep them sharp.  With a hone you're not remaking the blade edge...
