    First Bacon Attempt wIth BB

    So,the bacon was cold smoked only. Then I SV for 1hr at 140. It really finishes the flavor. Originally, I had planned to cold smoke then hot smoke. I remembered last time I cold smoked then SV, and it turned out great. Joe

    Cajun, This recipe works really well. I love using the sawdust in the tube. I get great color and it's so clean. There's almost no soot.

    First Bacon Attempt wIth BB

    Cured and washed, I will smoke tomorrow. I really liked using the sawdust in the tube. Clean smoke, and gave the sausage great color. Using the parchment was so much easier to get even distribution of the cure. Joe

    Firing up The Smoke Tube

    Okay, just an observation. My tube got about 3 hours of smoke. The smoke was much cleaner than pellets, and the sausages got better color. Definitely a win,tomorrow I will use it for the bacon. Looking up ubolt. Joe

    So, I am a huge fan of lemon zest, but never thought of it in bratwurst. It just added a nice pop in flavor. It's subtle and brings out the other spices. Sue isn't really a bratwurst fan. She really liked the test patty. Joe

    Ok, so I followed JCam's brat recipe. The test piece was totally the best brat ever. I left out the caraway(my family isn't a fan). 1 Tbsp Sugar 3 Tbsp Salt (if you wish to smoke these, add 1 tsp cure #1) 2 tsp Black Pepper 2 tsp Onion Powder 2 tsp Garlic Powder 2 tsp Ginger 2 tsp Marjoram 1...
