    First attempt making sausage

    First batch sold? I don't use commercial seasoning mixes due to the the salt. Takes a bit of trial and error to get the seasoning to your taste.

    Smoking brisket advice please.

    Welcome to the forum. No experience with an East Oak smoker. I've done brisket on a cheap offset and my pellet pooper. I've done that, but I don't wrap in foil or butcher paper. I smoke over a large foil pan to collect the drippings. After it hits the stall, it goes in the pan foil covered...

    SANTAROSANO CHORIZO (ST. ROSE SAUSAGE)

    Sausage looks WOW. You knocked it out of the park on your first time. Most important is that you are happy with the results. Changing recipes to your taste is the goal of home production. Your English is very good. I searched on Santa Rosa de Cabal sausage. What a history. It is the same as...

    Our Second piece of Heaven, Little piece on the Atlantic Ocean

    Shared driveway? Hmm make sure the easement is well stated in the documentation for the closing. If it gets omitted it is a pia to get added, at least here in the states. Probably preaching to the choir, but a bleach down is great for porous surfaces to kill mold. Lumber is not porous and...

    Increase height of WSM from ground?

    Son learned the back hazard by competing in the Fire Fighter (FF) Combat Challenge. In NW MN it is mostly VFD. Town we live in actually has a mix of FT and VFD in the same station. FT serves the city only and the VFD serves the surrounding rural area. Many of the FT are members of the VFD. I...

    Increase height of WSM from ground?

    Amazing how just a few inches makes a big difference. I don't have a WSM, but I use a Jumbo Joe for grilling most of our meals in the summer. I have it on a waist height table and that makes it so convenient. Missed your opening post? Thanks for your service. Father expanded and ran a...

    First attempt making sausage

    Well that sucks on meat. You're set for freezers! amybe need to pick up another fridge? In MN I have 2 fridges (w freezer) and an upright freezer. I don't run out of space. Here in FL, I have a crappy side by side fridge/freezer. I need to hit the scratch & dent stores for a dedicated freezer.

    Venison and CWD

    CWD is primarily confined to the brain and spinal column and meat outside of that region is safe to eat? I have no clue Hunt in Minnesota and it is slowly spreading across the state. Last confirmed was lower NW Minnesota in the Climax (yes that is a town) area.
