    Hot sauce using juicer

    Thanks guys. I'll have to look into getting a large screen and maybe the tomato. Was wondering if I don't ferment and just simmer, would I strain the peppers and then run them through the juicer and use the left over liquid from the pan to thin if needed? Appreciate the help.

    Yea, there is a ring. And the biggest tangle I've ever seen. Hope the quality is better than the packaging. I see pre-tubed in my future.

    Looking for good casings tutorial

    Snack sticks schedule

    Yes, there is cure #1 in it. So the meat will cure in bulk. My problem is limited time each day. I'm was primarily concerned about the casings. Haven't used collagen before.

    Snack sticks schedule

    Gonna try some venison snack sticks this weekend. Plan on grinding and mixing seasoning, then in the fridge overnight. Stuff the next day and again in the fridge overnight (don't have time to smoke and stuff same day). Obviously, smoke on day three. Shouldn't be a problem leaving the stuffed...

    Poaching Sausage

    I'm getting ready to try my hand at summer sausage. Those that poach, do you vac seal the chubs first or just put them in the bath? Using fibrous casings. Thanks.

    Diamond Crystal Salt replacement

    Thanks, guys. I find I like the texture of Diamond, plus no additives. Morton kosher is available at less that $3/3lb box, so I guess I'll be switching.

    Diamond Crystal Salt replacement

    I'm down to my last 3lb box and there is none to be found. Seems the places that used to carry it have switched to Morton. Just wondering what anyone else is using in place of Diamond. Morton is still available, just always used Diamond.

    Masterbuilt Gravity Feed

    Been this way for me since I started using smokers way back when. Just wondered if it's just me.

    Masterbuilt Gravity Feed

    Basically, yes. Seems once I use hickory, that's all I smell/taste. No big deal, I guess. I like hickory. :emoji_slight_smile:
