Me too..... I was searching for reviews of the Pit Boss when I stumbled on this thread... I wonder what Cabela's return policy is... I have been looking for a used Traeger
to take to our place in northern MI. I thought for $400 this might do the trick ??
You're right...it's been a long, crappy winter so when it's finally nice I don't sit in front of the puter either..
I have about 20# of bellies and a 5# pork loin soaking in Pops brine right now. Maybe I'll go shake the buckets to keep me busy for a while...lol.
I'll check back tonight.
As always, please feel free to straighten me out on any lingo or misunderstood information on my part.... I'm trying to get a good grasp on this.. Thanks. :)
Lets start with wet curing as in Pops family brine as an example.
I've been reading and I've found different posts/websites talking...
I copied a design from a very popular smoke tube many use. I bought a 48" piece of 2" perforated, SS muffler from Amazon. I make two 14" tubes and two, 9" tubes.
I cut slices on one end and bent them over, the other end is open. Light the pellets/chips and close to lid to the smoker. Alas, cold...
I recently purchased the Advantco 10" unit as well. The the cleaning kit seemed kinda' pricey for what it was. I ordered the QuickSan, lubricating spray from them but ordered a pair of cut resistant gloves from Amazon. Turns out I didn't even use the gloves...just got in the way.

Thanks Dave ! Pops has two recipe's that he suggests, the reg that calls for 1c. of sugar,salt,brown sugar and his LS blend that calls for1/2c. of sugar,salt,browns sugar. I split it

Ugh.... I guess I should have asked all these questions before I started to brine...doh! The good news is I have six more chunks just like these six in
the freezer. I'll try that for the next batch. Thanks.
I'm not a fan of too much salt either. I'll soak them. I see you do do the fridge/pellicle thing. What is your method for getting good results here ?
CBP was my plan from the get go... Love CBP ! I made a few smoke tubes and was planning to use apple chips and pellets for smoke. 80 huh ?
I'm...
Thanks ! I'm really looking forward to it...but, it's my 13 yr old son that talked me into it..I'm glad he did.
I just ground up a 9# butt this morning and mixed up four different breakfast sausages. I never thought of doing that either until I started searching around here...LOL. ...
Hello everyone, great forum you have here ! I have a few questions and I'm sure the answers are out there but maybe you guys can give me the cliff notes... I just started a wet cure with Pop's real simple curing brine. I have six pieces of skin on belly soaking right now and they are all...
