    Question on 2-2-1 for BB ribs

    I have always done my ribs with out "foiling" them, and they have always been pretty good to me. I have three racks of baby backs that I got from Sams and am going to try the 2-2-1 method. My question is, can I put all three racks in one foil wrap together, or should I wrap each rack separately...

    Breakfast sausage question?

    I've tried some of the recipes in Rytek Kutas book, and find they are kind of bland. The book is full of good info, I just didn't like the recipes I tried. With that being said, it's hard to go wrong with Leggs old plantation #10 breakfast seasoning. a little heat, and sage. And for under $2.00...

    Advice/Info on Snack Sticks

    I would recomend cooking until internal temp is 152, at that point they are fully cooked. When using the collagen casings, be sure that you don't over stuff as they tend to burst quite easily. I use Leggs Old Plantation snack stick seasoning, and everybody seems to love them. Dave

    Sausage Prep

    Wow, that is a really good price. I use a scale that was made for measuring refrigerant, and it is pretty accurate, but it sure cost a whole lot more than that. I might get one of those too. Is it as accurate as they claim? Dave

    First time Butt with QVIEW

    Ok, this is the first time I've cooked a butt, without converting it to sausage first!! I followed the procedures I read here, including using SoFlaQuer's finishing sauce. Man, have I been missing out! I can't believe moist and tender it was after 9.5 hours in the smoker, and another 2 wrapped...

    Hello From Humble Texas

I grew up in Michigan, but am now a "Damn Yankee" ( one who came to Texas, and didn't go back!!), been her 26 years now.

    summer sausage

    I've made hundreds of pounds of summer sausage with cheese, and the only cheese I have used is pain old cheddar from Sams, cut into 1/4-1/2" cubes. I guess it depends on what you are using to smoke it with. Keep the smoker temps under 165, casing stuffed tight with no voids and you shouldn't...

    Discussion, how to produce smoke ring in electric smokers?

    Or.... it could have been the cure in the bacon permeated into the fatty. That would be my guess. Either way, nice looking fatty!! Dave PS, I just noticed where you are from, I grew up in Northville.
