venison sausage - which wood?
Thanks, guys. It's a sort-of breakfast blend of sausage. Sort of, because I took an old standby family recipe and threw a few more spices into the mix, like Monterey Steak Spice instead of just black cracked pepper, a little red pepper flake and some bbq rub. The meat is 30% venison, 20% elk... -
venison sausage - which wood?
I've pretty much always used apple wood chips for smoking venison sausage. My kids bought a couple of bags of wood chips for me to try - which do you think I should try first? The Apple, Cherry or Maple? Greg -
Loading, managing your racks
I guess I don't want to keep the smoker door open while I'm loading racks, so trying to load them up (somewhat neatly) in the kitchen first. Sounds like I need to make a rack rack...- gkainz

Loading, managing your racks
Looking for tips on how you all load up your racks before taking them out to the smoker. I've tried loading a rack with meat (jerky, fish, etc) and then try to put another rack above it using soup cans to separate them...didn't work all that slick. So, how do you do it when you have multiple...- gkainz

Buffalo tenderized round steak?
I've got a bunch of buffalo tenderized round steak in the freezer (down to the bottom of the freezer and it's about all that's left) and I'm wondering if they would turn out ok if ground and made into jerkey with a ... what the heck are they... a jerkey shooter?- gkainz

My first chickens - GOSM
I had some redness in the meat near the leg/thigh joints, but I believe the juices were running clear, so perhaps they were done just fine? Thanks! Greg Hah!, this is funny!!! I just noticed our dog sticking its nose into the first photo - she's made "new best friends" with our smoker. Used to... -
My first chickens - GOSM
Smoked my first chickens this weekend - turned out pretty good, according to the family. Used 1 gallon of water, 1 cup of canning salt and 1 cup of sugar for the brine, soaked 4 hours, and lemon pepper for the rub. Smoked them with mesquite wood for about 1.5 hours breast down, turned them... -

Hi Chris - a very good friend of mine retired from the Navy at Scott AFB last year (I know - sounds odd ... long story) and is still living in O'Fallon. Small world! -
Big hello from Minnesota
Welcome, Mac. I'll have to go get the recipes my family (all from Minnesota, by the way) used when I was a kid - the sausage was awesome, as I recall. I've also made the decision to process my own game again, starting this fall, elk and deer cooperating, of course. The guy I use makes an... -
turkey legs
Never heard of Fairway Food. Is that a local store or on-line source? I see you're from Iowa...my wife spent some years near Des Moines - she says she doesn't recognize Fairway Food, either (but she's almost as old as me and her memory's going almost as fast as mine!) :D -
turkey legs
gotta ask - where does one find turkey legs? A couple of meat markets around here say they don't have 'em and don't expect to, either ... -
Buffalo round steaks
Hi guys, I'm down to the bottom of the freezer where all the buffalo tenderized round steaks go to die... So, I have this new Great Outdoors smoker sitting there just itching to be used ... how about some suggestions? Even "grind up the round steaks and make jerky out of 'em"? Also, I'm sure... -

Thanks for the welcome, guys - appreciate it! JMack, the Gander Mountain store is in Thornton, slightly east of I-25, south of 120th in the old Builder's Square location. We've really gained Gander Mountain, Bass Pro Shops and Sportsman's Warehouse in Denver, so choices are looking up... -

Just found the forum - hi from Colorado. I'm new to smoking - just bought a Great Outdoors gas smoker from Gander Mountain (and then found it cheaper at Wal-Mart - oh, well!) after a salmon fishing trip to Canada. Found a couple of recipes for smoked salmon on line and my first batch turned...
