    Can I convert a double oven into a smoker?

    Dang that looks like a good oven. No idea if it would work or not but would love to see it. Cool idea for sure. Wonder what a live fire would do to the inside? Might have to line it with something. Others in here will have some good thoughts. Hope it works though.

    Which one is the real one? Or is there a difference?

    I think they have just updated their packaging. Probably same product, but the bag on top is the newest version according to their website.

    Newby : Looking @ possible smoker options ?

    Forgot to mention I also have an MES40 with an auber PID controller and the "mailbox mod" for a smoke tube. I use it almost exclusively for sausages, snack sticks, and jerky. Great set up for really low temp stuff

    Newby : Looking @ possible smoker options ?

    Maybe look at a Kamado? I've had a Kamado Joe for years and like it's versatility. I can grill or smoke and I like the charcoal/wood smoke. A bit pricey though and requires some technique to dial in temp. I've considered going the pellet smoker route as well for simplicity sake. And then there's...

    Cutworms killing my pepper seedlings, 50 plants killed so far, HELP!

    Just popping in to offer some clarification on a couple comments. I have worked in the pesticide industry for 30 years. I realize some of this can be confusing though. Pesticides are regularly branded/marketed in different segments for value reasons (i.e. higher value in lawns vs. crops). This...

    How Do You Afford This Addiction?

    I work from my home, but my office is in Edison. I lead a Japanese Ag Chem company for North America. Try to do our small part to keep our crops safe and free of pests.

    1st Summer Sausage

    Thanks all! Looks much better after 2 days in the fridge. Great advice @chopsaw!

    1st Summer Sausage

    Oh wow! What a difference. I’ll check it again.

    1st Summer Sausage

    Will do. Taste is good although I used dry milk for binder and I just don’t like the creamy flavor it gives. Think I’ll try potato starch next time. I’ll know more about texture after a day or so in the fridge. Curious what the difference between hand and mechanical mix would be?

    1st Summer Sausage

    By hand. I do see fat so hope you’re right.

    1st Summer Sausage

    Just finished my first Summer Sausage. Is this fat out? Any of you experts see anything else that needs correcting? Keep in mind that this is a cut pic just out of the ice bath.

    Sous Vide Times???

    Also for the pasteurization table, there is no "shape" reference so a 30 mm sausage is treated the same as a 30 mm thick steak? Once my 30 mm sausage is at 136.5F, I can hold it at or above for 2 hr and it's good?

    Sous Vide Times???

    What do you mean "without texture issues"? A little "less" done, but still safe? So more moist?
