Awesome score! Now put that baby to work!

Thanks guys! I really like the height of it, thats the reason I bought it actually

Picked up a new smoke hollow hearth xxl smoker a couple weeks ago and finally got some time to fire it up. Cured some chicken parts in Pop's brine for about 3 days, also did a few abt's. Smoked using some competition blend pellets in my amazen tube because I couldn't get the chip drawers on this...

I would say that was a bit too cold,my chamber temp ran about 65. Also, it's common practice to bag up your cheese and let it mellow out in the fridge for 4 to 6 weeks. This allows the smoke to penetrate and equalize throughout. You'll find that cheese that tasted like an ashtray after smoking...

The chamber sealer has several advantages over the suction type, depending on your usage. First is bag cost. Chamber bags run about 10-20% of the cost for the same amount of suction bags. That adds up fast when you use it regularly like so many of us do. Another big one for me is longevity. I...

It certainly is! It quit on me a couple days before the vacmaster showed up, sealing strip doesn't work anymore. I may hold on to it just for the jar attachment

Been eyeballing a chamber sealer for quite sometime now, reading reviews, and watching videos. Finally decided on the VacMaster 215! Ordered one from Lisa, and after a snafu with Ups, finally got it delivered and put to use last weekend. All I can say is WOW! This thing is awesome! I really...

Picked up a 12 inch amazen tube smoker and some apple pellets yesterday and put them to use today. Assorted cheeses and some hard boiled eggs smoked for 3.5 hours.

Been awhile since I posted here but just wanted to share my latest score! I've had a small home slicer for some years now and it just never has been enough for my purposes. I found this globe model #775l on the local classifieds last week. That's my old slicer next to it. It came with an extra...

I got the ABT holder at Sportsman's Warehouse. Its made by King Kooker, 36 holes and yes it came with a corer. I paid $20. I always did them boat style, but it takes up a lot of rack space that way. This was my first go with the holder and it works well, but either the holes are a little small...

I woke up this morning with a craving for some good wings, so off to the store I went for some provisions. Picked up a package of wings and a bottle of Sweet Baby Ray's wing sauce to try out. I fired up my newish SV24 and then separated the wings into the proper pieces. Then I seasoned them...

I always thought osmosis was a two way street? I'm not sure what is in the enhanced solution, but I know I put other flavorings in my brine besides salt. Once the salt content levels out between the bird and the brine going either way, the fluids are free to pass back and forth thru the cell...

I grew up on the west side of Abq, so I know what you mean about the view. But we have some really amazing views here in Utah as well! I have always said you can find something to like about anyplace you are living. And as long as you bring the smoker, life is good almost anywhere!

I currently am using Microsoft OneNote. Its part of the office suite, and not too bad. It lets you copy or cut anything on the web and just "send to onenote" where it is all organized in a notebook under different tabs. So far I like it, I'm always coming across something on the web I wanna try...

Sounds like a pretty tasty chili! I gotta say though, jalapenos are never optional at my house!

Well, here are a couple pics of my jelly attempt. I think it turned out great! I used about 18 jalapenos in my batch, with only a few seeds thrown in towards the end. I think it needs a bit more heat as this batch has none, but it tastes great! I am already down 1 jar, so round two won't be too...

Hey Tas... Just for clarification on your recipe, is it 25 jalapenos halved or 25 halves? I split the difference and went with about 18-20, just over a pound. Seems to taste fine, just not sure if it would affect the gelling if I was off too much? They are in the water bath now, so I will know...

just trying to upload a pic for my signature... seems to be working now!
