    Ref; Overnight Chuckies

    Just woke up..well the giant fluff monster that is my dog woke me up. They're darn close to done; just a few spots tough, most is on the verge of being perfectly tender to my liking. Meat probes read in the 189 to 195f range. Probs coulda slept in another hour and been fine!

    Ref; Overnight Chuckies

    Every time I try to do chuckies it never seems to go according to plan...never getting tender or hitting 210f IT yadda yadda..so I decided I'll run it overnight. With my inkbird set up I got the phone app set to go off at 210f IT if that should some how be hit overnight. For once I am hoping to...

    Brisket Question?

    Heck I think it's a good idea to do work ahead when possible...and like JJ says; more time for the seasoning to work it's magic :)

    Finally had a nice morning

    I notice a bit; more in burn rates then necessarily in flavour. Though...my friend says he can tell when I ran pure apple vs blends when it came to cheese. The cheese got 'sharper' with the blended vs pure apple. I am inclined to agree.

    As far as I understand <As I don't want to just go and ask> but she had one kidney removed already due to the cancer. The second one has it now as well. Thanks every one for your support!

    Ref; Just heard awful news.

    I and another friend actually plan to do just that when she gets the transplant. We're cordinating with her husband on that. <We don't want her to stress out about company and trying to make things presentable you know?!?> And thank you every one for the thoughts and prayers!

    Ref; Just heard awful news.

    My friend has been battling cancer for roughly half a decade now, and she was due for a kidney transplant, her 4th organ to be removed due to cancer..but due to chemo etc, her heart is to weak and she was deemed a flight ask, she couldn't fly to NYC and has to have the procedures done locally in...

    Pork Belly Bacon question

    Nope; just the curing salt and sugar. Nothing else. Once you get the hang of it, then it's time to experiment. Also from my own observations, maple syrup for bacon is almost always wasted, it just makes the meat sticky..doesn't add much flavour sadly.

    How much and how long....

    You can use the warm setting on a crockpot; or sous vide it the day of to be honest. Look up some finishing sauces for ideas of liquid to add <or just a bit of apple juice>

    How much and how long....

    I gave up on plans when it came to smoking, I just do things in advance of dead lines...<After a few family meals were planned but the BBQ didn't agree with the plan!> I do suggest pulling when the IT is 205f though.

    Newbie needs equipment advice

    For a jerky gun; Fleet Farm has a pretty basic one that holds about a pound of meat in the chamber for all of 20 bucks when I picked it up Walt. For a stuffer: https://tinyurl.com/y4puy4z7 For a grinder: https://tinyurl.com/y647y84r These are what I got. I can snag you a jerky gun from...

    How much and how long....

    That sounds about right for the protein; As for how long..I would suggest you cook the pulled pork a day in advance and reheat in a nesco or similiar the day of.
