    Keto Jerky

    I'm starting an adventure down a "low carb, high fat, high protein" diet (keto or atkins) and I think jerky would be an amazing snack while on this diet. However, most marinades and whatnot I've used in the past for Jerky has been high in sugar content. Does anyone have any good low carb...

    File Cabinet Smoker?

    I'm looking at building my own smoker and I'm looking at file cabinets as a possible option. I would primarily use it for jerky (I typically hang my jerky strips off of skewers) and the square drawers seem like a perfect option for me to use. My main concern is that there would be some odd...

    Overdone Pulled Pork

    So I smoked a boneless butt last night and my electric smoker went haywire or something and ran really hot. What I ended up with after about a 10 hour smoke was a melted door on my smoker and some very well done Pulled Pork. The outside was extra crispy and the inside was a bit dry. I don't...

    For those of you who are hoping it comes into your area I have a suggestion as a Costco Employee.

    Looking to smoke my bacon tonight, worried about temps

    Hi, my bacon is ready to be smoked tonight but the lowest it'll reach is 65 degrees. Think a big pan of ice will hold me over or should I just do a shorter hot smoke?

    Protecting heating elements

    They replaced the element (And I've had it for a while) I'm just wondering if there's anything people do to extend the life of the smoker.

    Costco belly 07/05/15

    mummel, The best way to get meat cheaper at costco is to by it by the case. They can't/won't make any deals on meats about to expire (especially beef) for food safety reasons.

    Costco belly 07/05/15

    I know that Auburn Hills Costco has always had the briskets, they just might be prime cut though which makes em like 9 bucks a lb (eesh). I actually work at that costco and the meat manager says he's not sure how long they'll have the pork belly and it all depends on how it sells.

    Replacement Heating Element

    As many as I could find and they seem to be in good condition, no corrosion or black scorch marks. I may have missed some though since the system seems a bit archaic to me.
