    I accidentally bought two pre-brined turkeys. I didn't even know it was such a thing. I went to Brine my turkey and it has a white dot on it that says pre-brined.

    Just about every recipe I read warns about using iodized salt. But that's pretty much all I have. I ran out of kosher salt and don't get paid till the 1st and I was planning on making sausage and turkey brine. Why don't we use the iodine salt? Anything I can do to used table salt? Tia

    BBQ toys

    I've been looking at one of the wireless thermometers that displays the temperature of the smoker cavity and one the meat temperature. The prices widely vary. I'm broke, what am I looking at if I get a cheapo? How bad are they? Same question for a vacuum sealer. Might be able to get myself a...

    My pit boss Austin XL has smoked its last. And while I did like using a pellet smoker, I'm a stick burner guy typically. Or indirect charcoal and hardwood.

    Fill up a kitchen aide mixer with jerky

    Sausage party delayed

    I woke up on my birthday, with a filling on my pillow. Instead of a sausage party I went to the dentist. The dentist gave me drugs, and not the fun kind. It was kind of a bummer. But but 24 hours with antibiotics and the infection leaving, I charge the head with my second and third sausage...

    Every website only has one summer sausage recipe two guys in a cooler, Chudds BBQ, Joe's BBQ, every major website has maybe one recipe. What's the deal? This is literally an ancient sausage they've been making for hundreds if not thousands of years. What's going on?
