    New to me Weber Kettle 22”

    Was given a used Weber Kettle, cleaned it up with soap and water, took the ash/vent cleaner apart and got it working properly. The cooking grate was rusted bad, wire brush and steel wool wouldn’t touch it. I’ve ordered a new one and did some research on Weber’s website on preventing rust...

    Oak Barrel Staves

    Recently picked up a Weber Kettle, telling my neighbor that I’m looking for suitable wood to toss on the coals to add a bit of smoke to my new found kettle. This gentleman has been all over this area so we were discussing old abandoned farms that might have some Apple, Cherry, Plum, Pear trees...

    What happened? One year old smoked cheese boring

    Finally was able to age my smoked cheese for one year, opened the 3 packs this week and virtually zero smoke flavour. Usually when opening the vacuum sealed pack I’ll get that nice smell of smoke, this time nothing. Taste test, I could barely taste any smoke. The cheese in question was a no name...

    Amazon freebie??

    Most of this purchase is for electronics to build a PID, the rest is to replenish my depleted electrical supplies. $1.32 in GST. Don’t know what’s happening at Amazon.ca but I’ll take a break in sales taxes any day.

    Front Shoulder Ham Questions

    This is my first attempt at ham using Pop’s brine. It’s a 1.28kg(2.8lb) bone removed front shoulder roast, has been in the brine for 9 days. I’m thinking of treating this much like cold smoked bacon, reason being my wife isn’t a fan of too much smoke on hot smoked meats yet she loves cold...

    PID Design Questions

    Sourcing out components for a PID build and have a few questions. 1) Can’t seem to get my head around solid state relays. Internet research suggests that a 40Amp is better than a 25 Amp relay although a 25 Amp will suffice for a 800Watt element drawing 6.7 Amps. Why would I consider a 40 Watt...

    Pickerel Deep Fried

    After a quick rinse. Battered and protected from the oil with bread crumbs Not the healthiest meal but a family favourite. Usually I use cod but my wife found a deal, 11 pounds for $99. We had 22 pounds not that long ago. Best freshwater white meat fish IMHO.

    Smoking with Hops

    Was at this Brew Pub and noticed on the menu their bacon is smoked using hops.Back in my home brewing days I used hops in pellet form so smoking with hops in pellet form would be easy. A couple of decades ago I planted some hop plants along a fence, now I have hop cones coming out the wazoo in...
