    Snack Sticks in the New House!

    I can do this but seems I get to much fat between the sticks and the casing.  I use 80/20 and pull them at *150.  Any ideas

    Cured meat in the fridge. How long?

    Made 5lbs with lem packs. 3lbs 80-20 beef, 1lb of buffalo, and 1lb of deer with 1.25 teaspoon of #1 cure.  Got about 2lbs done and my 5lb LEM stuffer broke.  They said sometime nexy week I should have parts.  How long can the cured meat sit in the fridge? Thanks

    PID controller minimum outside air temp

    I wonder why he said the a RTD because a type K thermocouple is good -328 °F to +2462 °F.  Most of the PID can use either RTD or thermocouple.  I would use a thermocouple cheaper, more durable

    Really not sure on the smoke at lower temps but as far as the second part of your question, my feeling is this, the OEM equipment would over shoot by a bunch also, big recovery I don't notice that, but as far the temp...  You set it and its like plus or minus 1 or two degress

    Beef Stick problems please help driving me crazy.

    I cook mine slow also 100 120 140 160 180 each for about 2hrs.  Sometimes I start at 120.  I pulled mine out at IT of 162°F and I got pockets of fat also that I needed to cut out.  Think I'm leaving them in to long? `

    Never done that but sure...  So long as the temp outside of the smoker isn't warmer than 75, in that case you would need a cooler.  LOL  Just lowered mine to see the min temp setting and it stopped at -328°F

    Yes it does take the place on the controler on top.  The only thing that is original part of the smoker is the heating element and the enclosure.  Everything else has been gutted out.  I will take some pictures soon of the finished product.
