    First Time for Bacon

    I was pissed off when I found out they didn't have " Realtree Camo" but I guess woodland ain't so bad ! Now that little scooter is bad ass. The kids on the block don't stand a chance against me now.

    Cabelas meat slicer's ?

    Yours look's like what they are calling their Pro series now. I think the Commercial is just a sales pitch.

    Cabelas meat slicer's ?

    I agree 100% . Cabelas used to have the best return policy and customer service and I wasn't looking forward to the merger at all. 95% of the merchandise is made in China but it's affordable and that's why I asked about these slicers. I appreciate all the advice.

    Cabelas meat slicer's ?

    Yours must be a few years old because their commercial series doesn't look like that. Like I said the reviews are mixed on them and not very reassuring . I just need something for bacon and with the Cabela point's it's basically free but I want something that will last a few years. Might have to...

    Cabelas meat slicer's ?

    I have around 500 dollars in bonus point money for using my Cabelas credit card so that can go towards the purchase of a meat slicer but looking at the reviews on their website I am not so sure. Do any members here have one of their slicers ? If so please give me your opinion on it. I will be...

    First time bacon

    Well it's only been in the fridge for 3 hours so should I take it out and rinse it off and start over to avoid the double dose of cure??

    First time bacon

    Well it's my first time and my buddy gave me a chunk that he made using this recipe and I liked it so that's why I did it and it only cost me 20 bucks so that didn't break the bank. I will try other ways in the future.

    First time bacon

    I didn't think that would be needed for the questions that were asked . I figured that anyone who works with pork belly's would be understanding of me not understanding ! Does that help ???

    First time bacon

    Okay Jake got the fire going in me so here's my questions . I bought a pork belly with the rind on it and I skinned it so now I have 15 pounds of meat that I cut into 6 chunks. I used 1 cup of maple syrup and 1/2 cup each on brown sugar and Kosher salt with 2 tablespoons of cure and BP. This...

    My new smoker - Smokin-It

    Good news is it usually only takes a 2 ounce chunk of wood to season the meat so you don't have to refill anymore and you will use less wood. Enjoy your new toy

    Catalytic Converter Protection

    Personally I would rather use an IED small enough to blow the thieves hands off and do little damage to my truck ! I like Red Mist. I would love to go back to the old west days when a horse thief was either shot or hung by the neck until dead . In this case it's the CAT thief

    cost of making smoked sausage

    In the past I would take my wild game to a processor and have them cut and wrap and make SS and pepper sticks. I always took clean carcasses to them and I saw some very disgusting deer and elk hanging in there that I didn't want mixed up with my meat when making SS or sticks and they all told...

    Halibut recipe?

    Yeah I have fished Blowdega on the New Sea Angler for rockfish. Been to Flaming Gorge once. Whiskeytown no. Water is not plentiful anywhere and the lakes will be at record lows this year because of the drought. New Melones and Don Pedro are on my season pass list and with fuel being so high I...
