13th Annual South Florida Gathering (Dec 7th-8th 2024)

[carol506]

OK... I'm thinking this time we'll do more of a summer/regular sausage type thing insted of snack sticks... I'll have to go through the smokehouse as it took a hit (inside the shed that took a hit) from Hurricane Milton...

Things I can think of that we would need :

• Seasonings ( I get from OWENSBBQ)
• Casings ( I have casings for reg. sausage. We would need Summer Sausage casings)
• Meat (boston butts)

Of coarse I have all the equipment. We would just need Rick BGKYSmoker to come as he has all the knowledge ... OH.. And bring some bread with ya ...

We can bring a butt as well.

 

[carol506]

HAAAA... I Like it...

On that note... Anybody be interested in a quart of Blackberry, Strawberry, or Clear ??

Blackberry please

 

[BGKYSmoker]

Sorry all

Not going to make it again this year.

 

[BGKYSmoker]

Blackberry please

Carol

Do you have the recipe for the eggs you made.

 

[carol506]

Which eggs, fried deviled or regular deviled eggs. Start with boiled eggs, then separate whites from yolks. The deviled part no, I’m a put a little this and a little that in my recipes. John says he never gets same thing twice. Basically sweet pickle relish, minced onion, either Tony’s or Slap Ya Mama Cajun seasoning , Paprika and mayo. NO MUSTARD. Mix 1 c flour, 1. Panko (I use plain breadcrumbs), 3 eggs mixture to coat egg whites, deep fry until golden.
You can google to get more precise recipe.

I do think that is it, fried ones that were coated? those were the bomb.

Yea.. I came home after that and have done them 3 or 4 times... I cold smoke them first.. After cutting in half so yoke gets some smoke too...

 

[JckDanls 07]

OK.. For sausage and snack sticks... If your wanting to make some you will need to bring the kind of meat you want it to be... Beef or Pork... If your going beef you will still need pork fat... Boston Butt will work... If you just want pork sausage then alls you will need is whole untrimmed Boston butts...
Bring how ever much you want to make... Summer sausages hold about 2.5 lbs each casing... I may have some that hold around 1-1.5 lbs... Snack sticks I usually make 5 lb batches ...

The main thing to remember is that each load of sticks (about 30 lbs) in the smokehouse will take around 6 hours... Not sure how long the Summer sausage will take... I can try to bump temps up quicker if we have a few loads we need to run through...

 

[JckDanls 07]

Also.. John Fueling Around , said he can get beef less than $5 a lb... Contact him if you want to work something out with him to pick you up some...

Absolutely! Dang, should have sent my flasks along with Fueling Around !

[Fueling Around]

Do we need another grinder? It sounds as most are thinking whole meat.
I can bring my #8 Weston.
I'm bringing all my meat ground to mix and stuff on site.

Summer sausage is probably best at 130° overnight in the smoker. Bump the temp and add smoke in the morning while the Bloody Mary tonics do the duty?

Thanks Keith I'm going to Costco Business Center on Wednesday where I can find the cheap beef. Reply by Tuesday If want want me to pick some up. I gave you enough warning to think about it and Tuesday is the cut off.

 

[Fueling Around]

Clear please

 

[JckDanls 07]

Fueling Around ... John... we'll be good on equipment.

We can bring a butt as well.

That would be great...

Keith let us know what we can bring if you need meat or anything.

Depends on how much work you want to do... But No... a couple or 3 butts would work...

If anybody wants to split that with Mark... Or if more is wanted..

All's I ask is to have it all cut up in 1 x 1 x long strips, fat and all, before hand... And kept buried in ice untill needed for grinding.. Has to be as cold as possible...

 

[JckDanls 07]

Almost forgot... If ya want cheese or Jalapenos or whatever.... Don't forget to bring it too...

Also bring your seasoning packages.
I'm bringing my well stocked spice cabinet, but it has limitations in some items. My local source for Mace is gone.

Trip to Costco Business Center delayed to Friday. I'm giving blood tomorrow.
I'm picking up a package of tri-tip which is around $4 per pound. Packages run around 10# If anyone wants a tri-tip, I'll be happy to share at cost

 

[JckDanls 07]

Also bring your seasoning packages.

Will bring all I have ...

I’m planning on sharing a quart of cowboy candy either for potluck or sausage.

 

[carol506]

I have a problem in that truck is in the shop and it has my confirmation page and what I have written down and what you show as my site number is disagree. Plus I have arranged to switch sites but that may not work for other party. Unfortunately I don’t have that information either.

Doug can you correct my site number to 122. Thanks

 

[JckDanls 07]

Happy Tanksgiving y'all...

We're on the final countdown now...

So Charlotte was asking me what for sides are being brought for both nights so we can maybe avoid having 2 of the same dishes...

She is planning a Broccoli Salad Fri. night .. Mac -n- Cheese for Sat. night...
I'm doing Maple Bourbon Ham Fri. night and a Prime Brisket Sat. night..

 

[Discus39]

Next week this time we will be enjoying each other's company and some delicious food.
I'm undecided yet for Friday night. Sat i was going to do a smoked mac and cheese for sure on the side.
We have to assume don will make an appearance and bring some beans.
