    Any Interest in a MN, ND, SD, IA SMF gathering?

    Did anything ever get going for a event in Minnesota? I would be very interested. We have had the Fire on the Ice competition on Lake Mille Lacs in the past.

    My first Sous Vide cook with my new VACMASTER, Bone-In New York Steaks

    That looks great AL. I've been toying with the idea to purchase a sous vide machine. Now I've made up my mind thanks to you. Did I read it right to just sear the meat 1 minute on each side when done?

    Belly bacon, skin on or skin off?

    I've cured and smoked with and without the skin on. What bothers me a little is that when your buying a belly your paying for weight of the skin also and if you don't want it on the bacon it's not very cost effective. Just my opinion.
