    Stumps Baby

    Freiesleben, I can post some pictures when i get home. It does not have too big of a footprint. Most of its increased capacity comes from height. I made the decision to get the xl over the baby based on the length of ribs. lol. I have a Smokin-it number 2 that works great but it was too small to...

    Stumps Baby

    I purchased a xl baby from stumps a few months ago. I know there is a size difference so i cant vouch for the capacity. The web site does give a suggestion of how much of certain types of meat it will hold. It is pretty conservative. I will say the quality of the product is awesome, and their...

    Why bother?

    I would say cost and the ease of initial use are deciding factors. While a $50 smoker may not produce optimal results from the start, it can suffice to help someone decide if smoking is for them. Heck, with a few mods and some patience, I enjoyed some pretty good pork off my little electric...

    Is Canadian Bacon still safe

    Maybe this should be a seperate post, or maybe it has been addressed previously, but, in a dry cure, how does 1/2 teaspoon of cure get evenly distributed around the meat? I have just begun trying my hand at curing, but was able to order TQ, which uses considerably more per pound. Just curious...

    Could soon be homeless.

    I like the way you think. They are made in the town I live in, so there is no shipping. Awesome idea.

    Could soon be homeless.

    Well, I have been dreaming of a brand new smoker for awhile. I went Friday and put my down payment on a new Stump's Smoker. I am super excited, but I haven't let my wife know yet. I have 8 weeks to break it to her. Or should I just act as surprised as she is when I bring it home? At any rate, I...

    My first sausage... A lot to learn but I had a blast.

    How long you have to soak the casings can vary a great deal depending on the casings themselves. In a bind I purchased some casings from an outdoor store. They were fairly dry, but i dealt with them the same as I had with casings I accquired from my local butcher. It was a terrible mistake. My...

    Manday 4

    What an awesome looking spread. I do have to say that it made the sandwich I was having for lunch seem awfully boring. lol. Thank you so much for posting all of the great recipes as well! Jeff

    My First Electric Smoker - Masterbuilt 40" or Cookshack Clone?

    I currently own a SI #2. My ONLY regret is that i didn't purchase the #3. lol. I absolutely love my SI smoker. I chose it because it seemed to be the best smoker for the money, after reading reviews on every smoker in it's range. The quality is certainly well above what i expected, and the...

    Hello to all from Georgia

    Just wanted to stop by and say hello. I have stalked this site for over a year and finally decided to join. I love this site and have already obtained MANY bits of information. Had never smoked anything, well except what burned in the oven... but this site allowed me to purchase a smoker that...
