    First try at making Venison Summer Sausage

    Time to try Sauerkraut

    Homemade saurkraut can be much better than store bought. And you can experiment with lengths of time letting it ferment. We did a batch this last Sept-Oct. Left it 10 weeks and came out fantastic. Previously went 6-7 weeks. Both are/were very good. One interesting thing, we had some purple...

    Let's Build A Smokehouse

    OK I understood it is a smoker. The reason I asked is I built one a few years ago and used 1X8 board that was pine. And after a couple of seasons I am getting pine pitch dripping out of the knot holes, was just trying to save you the trouble if you were doing the same. Good luck with the...

    Been out of the picture for a while

    JC, Very sorry to hear of your mother's condition. I respect you immensely for what you are doing to help her. I am in somewhat of the same 'boat'. Parents are aging and need help, so I am doing the same. Plenty of time for us in the future for BBQ. So at this time I am enjoying this site...

    Please critique my salmon cold smoker design

    Wow, I love the look of your new smoker. Easy to get to the salmon with the rack design. And the pic with the smoke appears to have plenty available for a good smoke flavor. Looking forward to how it works for you and if your happy with the design/construction. One thing I do know, if you can...

    foods that don't hold up well in the freezer

    I am like some above. I freeze Pulled pork and brisket both, but use a vacuum sealer. I have not had a different tasting one that I can recall. Although try to use them up within a month or two. Side note: We have found that we enjoy reheating the meat up by simply putting the pulled pork in...

    Pure Salmon

    That looks awesome! And I am going to try your marinade soon. Using up some of last years salmon we caught. One question about the cedar planks, which I have. I was told to soak them for a bit before putting on the grill. Do the planks char and give off smoke or just get warm? Usually using a...
