    Not smoking related but blowing off a little steam.

    Try finding in quart cans. You will pay through the nose, but it may be possible. I've had to this in Calif in years past and they are the ones that wrote the book on harmful materials that many states now follow. Good Luck!

    Free 60yr old Metal refer for a smoker? Sacramento, Ca.

    Cool looking retro refer you have there. My intentions were to make a cabinet smoker out of it after my mom passed 5 years ago so I shipped it up to Sacramento from SoCal. I just don't have time and I really don't want to move it with me to Jacksonville, NC in the next 1/2 years. I have too...

    Free 60yr old Metal refer for a smoker? Sacramento, Ca.

    I know some people like these old refers to convert to smokers. It's been in our family for 66+ years and still works but struggles in the 100*+ Norcal heat. I almost ruined 30+lbs of various smoked cheeses so it's time to retire it. Anyone in the NorCal area is welcome to it to convert to a...

    does this bacon cure look right?

    I took this slab and loin out of the dry cure and it smells good but inconsistent color on the out looks questionable Can someone tell me if this is normal? I dry cured for the correct time for the loin and took the slabs to the same length because it was just easier to do it this way. They were...

    Cold Smoked bacon length of time vs danger zone.

    Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate it. I smoked it cold with out temps in the low 40s and once it hit 60*, I turned on the heat to 200* until it reached 145*. It's now sitting in the refer firming up and I think it's more snacking meat than frying bacon. I used the HighMountainBBB mix...

    Cold Smoked bacon length of time vs danger zone.

    OK, this smoking bacon thing is all new to me and I have some confusion/questions... I have read and watched some videos where the length of time varies so much that other than smoke intensity, where should I be concerned with having the bacon in the smoker to too long and making people sick My...

    store bought BBB mix for brine country style pork.

    I'll answer most reply posts to me here. I've had this product for a while and figured...why not use it up and the amount of meat/cost is negligible for a first time. I considered doing a dry rub but wanted to make sure It was safely coated so wet brining seemed to be the simplest...

    A-Maze-N pellets/dust

    thank you for the reply. More than anything, I want to find a supplier for 100% pure wood specie pellets. Such as 100% cherry, not a blend of cherry and another wood(s) like maple/oak/etc. I just spoke/chat with pit boss and theirs are blends of 100% hardwood, not 100% of the flavor wood...

    Which pellet grill for the money?

    Our costco is closing out the Louisiana Grills upright pellet smoker for $449(Sacramento, Ca) If I was in the maket for another grill/smoker, I would consider it. Specailly since Costoc has a good return/satisfaction policy.
