My First Smoked Turkey Legs
A friend loves smoked turkey legs. He picked up a package of 3 a week ago and dropped them off asking if I could smoke them for him. We’ll I’ve never done them before so I did a search on the Forum and found Jeff’s Maple Butter Smoked Turkey Legs so I said why not. I started by brining them... -
My First Pellet Grill Turkey Breast
Since there were only four of us for Thanksgiving dinner this year, we decided to do a turkey breast instead of a whole turkey. I also decided to give it a try on my Camp Chef Windwood pellet grill. After searching the Smoking Meat forums, I got some great info on the best way to do this right... -
Meat Stick Experiment
Over the years, I’ve tried a number of meat stick seasonings. Looking in my fridge, I have 4 that I can’t even remember trying so the marathon begins. My goal is to try them and decided, keep or not. As an experiment, I decided to try using my Camp Chef pellet grill instead of my tried and tru... -
Beef Snack Stick Experiment
I’ve been making snack sticks for a while, trying different recipes and methods. I usually stuff collagen casings with my 5 lb LEM stuffer and put the sticks on the smoker for a while with various woods, usually hickory. I was reading something where a guy used a LEM Jerky Cannon to make un... -
Worcestershire Sauce in Beef Sticks
Recently, I tried Backwoods snack stick seasoning on a batch of beef sticks. I added some ECA which worked well, but it was missing something. I'm not sure, but would adding some Worcestershire sauce, maybe a couple teaspoons per pound work? Any ideas? Thanks. -
Bactoferm- Which to Use
For a long time I have used Bactoferm F-LC when making summer sausage. It works well. Somehow, I ordered Bactoferm F-RM-52, or that is what they sent me anyway. Is there a difference? If so, do I use the F-RM-52 for summer sausage or something else? Part 2 of this is I have Bactoferm T-SPX... -

Trying to do a Q View
It's been a while since I did a Q View. Used to be pretty easy. I've spent the last hour trying to put one together and add photos, but each time I try to upload a photo, I get a URL Location box.

Ground Turkey Meatball Question
I have a ground turkey meatball recipe that sounds great, with diced jalapenos, herbs, spices, egg and breadcrumb mix, made into tablespoon sized balls.

Jeff's Moink Recipe- With a Twist
I saw Jeff’s Moink recipe a while back and decided to give it a try for a party we were going to last weekend. Taking Jeff’s advice in the recipe, I decided to use store bought meatballs instead of making my own. When I got to the store, I couldn’t find plain premade meatballs but I did find... -
Q Views on new site
While I've done a number of Qviews, I haven't done one yet on the new site. I tried earlier and just can't figure out how to insert images from my PC. Used to have an "add image" button but now if I click the insert button on the tool bar, there's no option to upload a photo into the text box... -

First Elk Summer Sausage
A while back a friend gave me a few pounds of elk which I’ve had in the freezer wondering what to do with it. I decided that as I’m not big on game meat, I would try and make elk summer sausage.

I recently had a friend drop off a good sized elk roast. I've not worked with elk before and have found it a bit gamey for my taste. I'm thinking about trying a batch of elk summer sausage with it but have a couple questions. I've got what I think is a pretty good spice mix for beef summer... -
Snack Stick Casings
I've been making different kinds of snack sticks since I got my first MES. I've used a few different brand 19mm collagen casings including Weston and a no name I got on Ebay which were actually pretty good. Last time I ordered a package from The Sausage Maker. I have found those to be kind of... -
New MES 40 Temp Issue
Hi, A couple months ago I bought a new MES40 because I really liked my old MES30, but wanted a bigger unit. I've used it twice since "seasoning" it and for the most part it has been great.
