    Has the meat gone bad?

    I put an elk roast in a brine for pastrami about 2 weeks ago. I took it out with intentions of smoking it and I am little concerned about the meat. Most of the meat has a nice pink color, but there are some pieces that are brown. Does that mean the meat is rancid? Could it have gone rancid...

    Thanks everyone for posting

    I just want to give a big thank you to everyone who posts on this forum. I am starting to become known as the "meat guy" in the neighborhood.

    I made brats and ran out of casings. I have about 4lbs of meat left over. Any ideas of what I should do with it?  I thought about using that meat to make a fatty.

    Packer brisket vs Flat

    Sears BBQ Pro vertical propane smoker

    My neighborhood Sears has the BBQ Pro vertical gas smoker on sale. Has anyone used this brand of smoker? I was going to get a master built propane smoker, but I am thinking about this because of the price. However, if it isn't a good smoker, I would rather not.

    Smoked Atkins diet

    I am doing the traditional "lose weight" for my New Year's goal. I have had success in the past while on the Atkins diet. I figure this year I will do the "Smoked" Atkins diet. Still will be the Atkins diet, but now all of the meat will be smoked. That should help me out and stay strong.

    Question about smoking temperatures

    I have a question about smoking temperatures. My father-in-law and I often discuss proper smoking temperatures. By a discussion, I mean that he tells me that I am doing it wrong and I just nod my head and keep my mouth shut. :) Whenever I smoke pork, whether it is ribs, loin or a roast, I smoke...
