Keith, what is the weight capacity of your smokehouse?:sausage:

 

[JckDanls 07]

hell Dave... I dunno... it's gonna be 3x3x7... but we have all weekend and then some to cook it... so we can do 2-3-4 rounds....

 

[jarjarchef]

How many pounds are you looking at making?

 

[JckDanls 07]

I don't have a set number, Jar.... after making some at the NFL gathering and tasting that... I couldn't get enough to bring home.... After everybody gets a taste of these it will be the same way... just wanna make sure we have enough for everybody to take some home... as I said before, mainly the snack sticks (for me)....

 

[JckDanls 07]

just talked to Bill (SmokedApple) today.. he's gonna try to get around and get reservations this week and chime in here....

 

[rubbin butts]

I'll be bringing another grinder and a stuffer. If I can get the time to finish my smokehouse, I'll bring it.

Are we doing sticks with pork? Or are we going to come up with some beef?

I just defrosted my freezer and cleaned some old stuff out of it to make some room for meat shopping this weekend!

 

[JckDanls 07]

was thinking just pork... I know we made some with a venicin, pork mix... but I thought we also made some with just pork... there was no beef.... I know Rick gave me a couple packs of pork and jalapenos SS...

 

[jarjarchef]

If my FIL takes a deer before the gathering I'll bring all that I can. We shall see what he does.......

 

[s2k9k]

I've never had straight pork snack sticks but I'm game for anything!

 

[dougmays]

We've stayed at Hammock State Park with our campers before. Mega racoons and other animals at night and we had a screened room attached to our trailer. I think you can see that from my pic. Good site during the day. I sold the trailer though. Would love to get into the comps with you guys.

 

[JckDanls 07]

well come on over then Dave.... come spend the day with us... I went to the park in July on a recon mission to check it out for this gathering... I left garbage out for a couple of nights and didn't have any problems with critters.... guess I should have played the lottery that weekend being that lucky.... but anyways... grab a tent and come camp with us... or just come for the comp day....
