    Meat your Maker Grinders

    God has plans for you for sure. I'm a couple years younger than you, and things seem heavier than they used to for sure, but I believe I can handle this thing. I will most definitely give my feedback. I have watched so many videos and guys using this equipment, hope it processes like on the...

    Meat your Maker Grinders

    That is my concern as well. I bought the 1.5hp today. Things that didn't used to be so heavy for me are getting heavier the older I get. I hope it is all I imagine it to be. Still love to process my own meat.

    Meat your Maker Grinders

    Thank you all for your input, I have taken the input and purchased the larger on. That is great to know in advance. I don't plan to buy the mixer now and didn't know if I ever would. Mixing by hand is really not that hard. Thank you. Great to be able to collaborate with others that have had...

    Meat your Maker Grinders

    Robert, Very good point. Yes, I'm getting older now and would be my last one and hopefully pass along to my grandson who helps me now. Money is not the concern, my grandfather told me when I was a young boy, buy quality that will last for most of your life, buy cheap and replace all your life.

    I am ready to replace my old Cabelas grinder, and have settle on the "new" on the market company Meat your Maker. Question I have, the 1hp or the 1.5hp?

    Chorizo Help Needed

    Thank you, I really appreciate and will follow up when I make it. Do you use Mexican oregano? I know most recipes call for it, or do you use what I would call regular oregano?

    Chorizo Help Needed

    Mexican Chorizo is what I have been making, well attempting. Spanish Chorizo, as I understand is a semi-hard to hard fermented sausage. Fresh sausage is what i plan to maje, although once I find a version I like, I will add #1 Prague powder to cold smoke some as well.

    Chorizo Help Needed

    I feel your pain, that is why I'm finally reaching out. I make all my own sausage of every kind, but this one has kicked my butt. I have tried so many and every time disappointed. I am going to try the one that was posted above from celebrate sausage series. Allowing it to ferment might be the...

    Chorizo Help Needed

    Smoking, I appreciate the thoroughness of your response. In many of the Mexican recipes I have made, vinegar was added and each time was one ingredient I did not care for as it imparted a taste that I just didn't care for. I have used Guajillo and Anaheim peppers, Mexican oregano, garlic, onion...

    Chorizo Help Needed

    Hi all, though I don't post often, have several years smoking, learning and trying new things. I have to admit, I have tried so many recipes for Chorizo and gave up for a while because I love the taste of store bought, but make all my own sausages and want to keep it that way. Any good recipes...

    Pepperoni Snack Sticks

    Thank you, im not really set up for smoking snack sticks actually. My pits are more for back yard smokers. They work great for brisket, ribs and so on, but to hang and smoke as many teach I can't do. How different I believe it would have been. 4 to 5 hour cook/smokes turning into 12-14 hour...
