    No problem 😊 been there many times. Looked up the sm-009 - it is analog type controller. So it has a temperature bulb like an oven. The picture in the manual indicates the bulb is below the middle rack. If the meat is pushed against the rear wall this might impact the reading. The...

    Crazy Cajun Sausage Pot Pie (Lotsa Pics)

    Your creation looks like a keeper! We do something similar called a taco pie (meat,shells,refried beans, black beans, taco spices, onion, bell pepper) . It has no rice and can be a bit runny when first out of the oven. We chill it in the refrigerator overnight and it will slice nicely the next day.

    chef jimmyj question on 2 cuts of pork like discussed before.

    Have purchased two pack several times from Piggley Wiggley. Comes in two pack. Like pic JJ posted but split down the spine - head to tail. Depending on skills and equipment the spine can be a challenge to remove. Overall yield can be loins, chops, ribs, fat and trim meat for grinding. Last time...

    Portable generator

    Have 20kw air cooled with auto transfer switch propane fueled. For us it is an important component of the home. Have run 10 days straight due to hurricanes. Makes it great for the wife, nothing to switch or worry about since she fears electricity. When you review your options consider where...
