    I will be in Polaris the week of February 4th to assist with a testing of a Friedrich smokehouse. While I searched the state thread to see how many of you were near here, there's so many I'd have a heck of a time private messaging all of you. Just wondering, what barbecue joints can you...

    Have you gone professional?

    From someone in the process of making it work: Ask yourself, do you like having a party atmosphere and people all happy with your food? Well great. Now ask yourself if you don't mind the planning, execution and cleanup from that party every single day. Do you excell in marketing, bookwork...

    Making my own wood chips or blocks

    Johnny, In our commercial smokers the chips are extremely fine, well packed and they take forever to burn up........maybe something to do with air flow I'm sure, but ours never light totally, they just smoulder away in a mesh metal basket. The ignition starts at the top and a blower keeps the...

    Glued "oh my god sammies"

    OOOOO LAAAA Weeeee.....those look awesome. Everything taste better with butter. I was shocked when I ate my first steak with butter all over it and it was indeed better as well.

    "OTBS"

    It's been a very short time for me in smf, but I'm hoping that I've been accepted for the fact that I toil in pork every single day and that the passion is still bigger than anything I've ever done before for a living. While I won't ever have a huge post count, I sure hope that I can provide...
