Lot's of good advice here- I started welding about 2 years ago now, and went through a lot of the same questions- first machine that I got rid of was a little 110v harbor freight special- did flux core only and was pretty messy- I moved onto a Lincoln MIG setup- great little welder, but then I...
Well sorry I'm so late to the game here! Just ordered my Haake Immersion circulator- originally I was using my cheapo smoker controller to run a circulation pump with a bucket heater, but after it finally bit the dust, I decided to get a pro unit- I never did trust the think for longer cooks...
Oh and forgot to mention- they are absolutely awesome- made em a tad too smokey for the wife, but exactly what I was looking for with flavor- thanks for the inspiration Bear!
Well inspired by Bear's beef sticks, I thought they could use a little more punch to them, so I tracked down a recipe on the sausage making forums to work off of and modified it a bit. Wasn't making a traditional pepperoni, but I wanted the strong flavor profile, with of course, a little (a...
Thanks for the recipe Bear! Made these a couple of times now, but I really need to get myself an amazn smoker! Going for my first shot with a little wine instead of water and about a 50/50 mix of pork shoulder and lean beef, got it all sitting in the fridge right now, will be shaping those bad...
Man- can't believe I missed this thread initially- Awesome buy man, congrats! I second the motion to see it in place with some vittles cooking up on it!
I've done a few different methods for skillet seasoning, what I finally settled on is pretty lazy- the long term stuff does build a pretty solid coating, but you can get a pretty decent performance by just using a good amount of oil in cooking everything- usually people under-utilize oil in cast...
Looking great man! Thanks for the heads up on the hardware- now I think I'm going to have to find a shop to do the bends for me before I tack it together- may as well see if I can get the sheets water/laser cut for a perfect fit.
I'll be interested to see how this bad boy turns out for you man! I'm thinking I may do a half size clone here in the near future!
For now i'm going to kick back and watch how it progresses! Where did you get your hinges/latch mechanisms?
Ok gotta chime in here as well- toss that meat- definitely not safe to consume. Reading the reviews on the site you linked to it looks like temp variation is a big deal with that particular unit- not a big deal, but you've got to account for it- the other guys hit it right on the head with a...
Sigh. Well happy to report that the chuckie is fine, just stuck in an extra long stall this evening- on the plus side I am pretty happy that I can just change the temp on my pigeon (like a nano q) and cranked it up to 295. Will be eating a bit late, but tossed some ABT's on to hold us over...
I've cooked on a few different rigs, and I've gotta say for my money the RF units are the way to go- more consistent temps across the whole cooking surface, with the airflow food cooks slightly faster. Just a word to the wise however, as a current RF stickburning guy, you will spend more time...
Just did some St Louis style myself yesterday (Forgot to snap pictures though)- Got them on the smoker at 2pm@ 245 degrees, pulled them off at about 7:00- turned out just the way I like, a little bit of pull on the meat, not falling to pieces, which I've done a few times myself. Normally I'm...
Looking good- seems like you kept them pretty moist with the 2-2-1 method! Bark looks good as well- have to call that one some good looking vittles right there.
