Looks yummy. As you say, the hard part will be the wait now!

How do you like the chamber vacuum sealer? It seems like they're expensive, but you'd save a lot on the bags over time and be able to do wet items.



Tabbed in.

If your going to take the time, why not do it in volume. that makes my buddies happy.

The waiting is truly the hardest part!

Like right now, I'm watching quite a few of you smoke cheese and I'm WAITING for my temps to start getting fall like...  Gonna be 90° again today...

Looks like you'll have some happy friends soon!

The weather has been varying here. Just when I have a day or two off to do some smoking, it has warmed up again.

I hate to complain, though. Soon enough it will be snowing and we'll be griping about that!

I think I'll make a big batch of nuts since I do them hot.

That looks like a good start to building a nice batch of cheese stock.... I also like the vac master,,

A full smoker is a happy smoker = POINTS
