    It is a flat. Rectangular shaped with a decent fat cap.

    Pastrami. Be More Moister! Q View.

    I was actually thinking about just wrapping it in foil and baking it in the oven. The more I think about it, the more I believe I'm drying it out too much during cold smoking. Problem is I don't have an efficient way to hot smoke due to only having a charcoal grill. Whatever coals I put in there...

    Pastrami. Be More Moister! Q View.

    Been tinkering with pastrami via the corned beef from the supermarket method. I coat the corned beef liberally with pepper and coriander, and other spices, wrap it in plastic wrap and let it sit overnight in the fridge. Next day I take it out and cold smoke it for 2 hours and then finish it in...

    Need speedy feedback on this slicer...have to order tonight. UPDATED.

    I received the Chef's Choice Model 610 a few days ago and immediately threw a pastrami chunk and a small, unsliced belly into the freezer for a firm-up. I was able to cut the 'strami paper-thin, really, and the bacon was cut into thick, consistently even slices. Once the belly started to thaw...

    Knife I want. Good? No good?

    Thank you all for the replies. Definitely have something to think about but I probably will go with the Forshner. If I stay with this hobby I will probably graduate to something more high end. But, for now, I'm gonna have some fun and spend the extra cash on meat.

    LEM 575 Watt #8 Grinder. Jump on it?

    I don't have experience with grinders but this one gets good reviews on Amazon: Right now the price is at $69.99 down from 99.99 and I have an Amazon credit for $30 bringing the cost of the grinder down to $40. Should I jump on it before the price goes up? The few negative reviews stated that...

    Knife I want. Good? No good?

    Been jonesing for a slicer for some time to cut my bacon and pastrami, etc., and I like this one by Forshner: I don't want to spend tons of cash so this looks like a decent option for me. Anybody using this knife? Would like to hear opinions since I don't have much experience. Also...are the...

    Help me make peppered bacon

    I'm not qualified to answer your questions since I'm only on my second batch of bellies but the first time I did a dry cure and pressed the cracked pepper into the bellies before adding the cure mix. It came out really good. For this new batch I may cut the belly in two and coat one of them with...

    Preferred methodology of smoking CB

    Since you didn't specify I will use gasoline. J/K! I assume you mean a combination of cherry with hickory/maple/apple pellets. :)

    Preferred methodology of smoking CB

    Thanks for all the good tips! I'll have to take some pics after--and maybe during--the smoking process.

    Preferred methodology of smoking CB

    Can I ask what kind of wood you used? I was going to use cherry wood for my CB.

    Preferred methodology of smoking CB

    Got a pork loin in the wet cure to smoke this weekend for Canadian bacon. I've read about different methods for smoking but what is the general consensus here? Should it be cold smoked only, or cold smoked then hot smoked, hot smoked only? I was intending to do the cold then hot method to bring...

    Need speedy feedback on this slicer...have to order tonight. UPDATED.

    Thanks for the input. I actually did order that blade separately. It was an extra $29 but from the reviews and video demos I watched I think it will be worth it. I've always wanted a slicer and the wife finally gave in. She will probably like it more than myself just like she did when I finally...

    Need speedy feedback on this slicer...have to order tonight. UPDATED.

    I'm ready to pull the trigger. My Amazon Prime runs out in a few hours and I'd like to order this to get the free 2-day shipping. Does anyone have this slicer and do you like it? The construction is aluminum and stainless and has almost all positive reviews. I will be using this to cut my...
