Hello All,
It is the first week in NASCAR and since football is over I needed something to help fill my weekends. I decided to cook my first prime rib that we received with our quarter beef. It was a 3 rib roast so plenty for my wife and myself. Below is my trials and tribulations for...
I tried hot smoking some pink salt over the weekend for 12 hours. Not much color change in the salt. My question is should there be some moisture? I have seen a post where they say you need to spray the salt lightly ever few hours for the smoke to "stick." should I do this or add a small...
Here are some of the breads I have done. I love baking and typically make some breads every weekend. This week I tried buns for hotdogs and brats (no pics sorry)
Notice the rolls in corner there
Here is the sandwich and fries put together.
Nothing like smelling some yeast bread making all day.
Of in which foam. I come from Vernon Parish (Ft. Polk) originally floated around to Sulphur/ Lake Charles, Lafayette, NOLA, and Natchitoches for a while before moving to SD. I see you are a little further east than most of those.
I need a stuffer. Living on a student budget is hard to buy those fancy machines. I have a grinder and am looking to improvise on a stuffer. Got any ideas? I work with the physics and engineering dept so I may be able to get some pieces of tubing etc. I have been wanting to make some...
Man all this talk of liver and fishing. Some of the greatest memories were sitting at a lock and dam on the Red with livers pulling in big cats. Now I live in SD where there are no rivers and no cats to feed liver. I just started thinking about making some Boudin the other day since you can't...

I recently purchased a quarter beef that came with nice roasts (Prime Rib, Chuck, Sirloin Tip) but being a novice at smoking I was wondering what I should do with them? Should I smoke them or just cook them in the oven? Anyone have any ideas. I have the weights for each in a log...
Hey guys, know its not about the food but I have several family members in Vernon Parish who are under water. Trees are all over the place, 171 north is closed in several places. Y'all stay safe, the weather is only gonna get worse it seems.
Dave,
Thanks for the response. So that picnic will be safe to eat and serve to my guests?
This is my first time making a large piece of meat so I started to worry when I thought about the masses.

I purchased some pink cure #1, from a meat shop but it did not come with instructions on how much to use (quantities). I looked it up online and came up with many conflicting results. However, I used a recipe I found online to cure a pork picnic for 24 hours, then soaked it in water to remove...
I have the Butt in the fridge now, will start the brine on Wed night before going to bed. Friday night/ Sat morning will be a long all nighter as it cooks for halloween!
This is the recipe I used for my first attempt:

The wood was a mixture of cherry and hickory, and there was plenty of smoke. I think maybe because the skin was so thick the smoke could not penetrate very deep...
