    You had Stevie Nicks over for dinner?

    Memorial weekend smoking plans?

    Since they are separate, use the 8lb calculation + a few hours for unexpected stalls. I've had 8 pounders take over 16 hours while others kept to the forumula. I also don't foil.

    ideas for pint size jars

    Pickles! You can give them as gifts. That's one way to get rid of the jars. *****Sorry, didn't realize this post was a year old.*****

    Another Kraut convert! The kraut looks great. One of these days I'm going to give red cabbage a try in the fermenter. But you're right, store bought kraut is ditched. I picked up a bag of the brand I have used for years a couple of months ago because I was out and I had 10# still fermenting. It...

    Cured Bratwurst

    If you have a friend in the US, you can have the stuffer shipped to them (if you find one with free shipping) and then have them ship it to you as a gift.

    Single White Male iso Bratwurst Recipes!

    If you want quick and easy, I gave the fresh Brat mix from Sausagemaker.com a try and it is gooooood. I had split up the 5# batch and added shredded sharp cheddar. Strangely enough, I have yet to throw them on the grill. My first taste of the batch was a few weeks ago when my father made...

    10 Lbs. of Kraut!

    Whew! I just finished bagging up 10 lbs. of my latest batch of sauerkraut and am currently airing out the house. Took 8 weeks to ferment (last batch was about 5 lbs. and it went 6 weeks) but I let it go a few more days because I didn't have time to bag it. It's another winner! Perfect crunch...

    Practice meats for learning smoking without breaking the bank

    I have an MES 30 and my first time was chicken. It came out great -- the best chicken I ever had except the MES temp doesn't go high enough to crisp up the skin. Mine had a pretty crispy skin when I first pulled it out but it turned to rubber when I put it under a foil tent to rest. So be...

    Canadian Bacon - Success!

    Looks great! I recently did 10 lbs of CB (dry cured) and experimented with different flavors. The best (IMO) was the brown sugar/honey combo. Added the brown sugar and honey to the cure and rubbed the loin down with more honey the night before I smoked it.
