Somehow I have stopped receiving any emails from the smoking meat forum....what has gone wrong and what do I need to do to start getting information again.
I have been using my MES 40 with a mailbox mod to do a lot of smoking since going about 2 years ago.
Spent a lot of money going through the remote thermometers that have been recommended on the site. Found a NEW one that I just love...it is a FireBoard system......since using it and...
Went to reorder pellets from A-MAZE-N- products......cost of pellets ~$11.98 for 2 bags...cost of shipping $10.76.....I guess I'll look local for pellets from now on.....that doubles the price of the pellets!!!

As a little boy in North Carolina, I loved sausage my Dad brought home from a local market. Never found anything that tasted like it in all my travels with the Navy.......
Decided to try to make/recreate the sausage myself......(remember I am working on a taste that a 10 year old remembers...
I have been making sausage patties (sage sausage shaped then vacuum sealed and frozen).......I have not been able to find a sausage that tastes like a smoked link sausage my Dad used to buy in the 50's-60's in our small town in NC. The closes I can find to taste are the patties at "Cracker...
Made this bacon a few weeks ago.......I did not think that it mattered which way I sliced it.....the wife asked me this AM did I slice this batch with the "grain" as it is a little "stringy" when you eat it.....

Sorry guys but I am having a "SENIOR" moment
I bought a Chef's Choice model 165 slicer and also bought the sharpener attachment that sharpens the blade.
Well...I can find the book for the slicer, but I have misplaced the instructions on how to use the sharpener.
Does anyone have the...
Trying to smoke my first Canadian bacon....initially bought the A-maze-n for dust....could not keep it lit...even "nuked" the dust for 40
secs as recommended....built a tool box
attachment with lots of holes....still not able to keep lit......added a small fan to blow into the...
Used the advice I got from you guys to make 22+lbs of bacon this past weekend. made some straight "brown sugar" cure.....molasses cure and CBP +onion and garlic cure.....all were GREAT (thanks to using PoP's brine).
Smoked them in my New MES 40 with my "a-maze-n 6x6 in my "tool box"...
Attempted my first making of bacon and it was a total flop. I used the "wet cure" kit I got from the Sausagemaker. Followed the directions to a "tee"...smoked it at 200deg to an internal temp of 140 degrees...cut a piece off to see how I did....it was salt pork....cut a slice from the middle...
