    28lbs of goodness AKA Bacon

    I made a 28lb batch of bacon. Normally I take it to work and share but I had some folks ask to buy some. No way you could charge enough to pay for your time and effort but it's nice to know people enjoy your work.

    does it make sense to grind our own hamburger ?

    I bought a LEM grinder couple of moths ago and have been grinding my own hamburger ever since. I can buy ground chuck at the local butcher for $5.39/lb or get brisket, like today for $3.88. Granted I lost a lot in trimming but the hamburger stays red a lot longer in the fridge. Tastes so much...

    After I got my 2 briskets Friday, I went Sunday to get 2 more with different account, turns out they don't usually get more than a case at a time here in Indiana. Went to 5 stores and all sold out.

    Glaze question

    Sometimes I make a cherry bourbon glaze for my ribs. I do the 3-2-1 method with apple juice. My question is, would it be OK to put it in the foil instead of apple juice? I figured I should post an example

    Vacuum sealer

    My food saver sealer took a crap the other day. Today I was at a local store called "Ollie's" they buy up store close-outs, stuff like that. Anyway, they had a new western harvest guard sealer for $49. I did a quick search and seen they're an older model but usually $99. Does anyone have any...

    How to price jerky to sell?

    I have been buying eye of round and selling jerky at work for $5 for 4oz. I can sell as much as I make. Word gets around then you have everyone and their brother wanting some. I bought digital scales so it's more precise. If you count your time, you probably won't make money, but I do it because...
