My adventures with the Traulsen

[nevrsummr]

Hey all. So, I don't post often but i read whenever i get the time. And this place is my go to school for smoking. I want to thank Chef Jimmy J, Bear,Dave Omak,Smokin Al,Pops,and others for giving so much. Thankyou.

This fall was successful, we ended up with 3 nice deer so we (wife and I) got to try a lot of different things.
Then, the other day I slaughtered 3 sausage sows. Sold 2 and split one with a friend. I'm not much for words, but with that understanding, I did take some pictures to share with this site.

Thanks again everyone!

Potato skins stuffed with pulled pork, smoked cheese,or bleu cheese garlic dip and loaded potatoes. Also an atomic version with jalapeno powder and hot sauce. This was a super bowl fav.

We made 50 lbs of jalapeno cheese Germans. 25 lbs pepperoni sticks. 50 lbs gourmet Italian sausage,(half linked half loose) 25 pounds pepperoni for pizza. 25 lbs breakfast sausage. 25 lbs bacon. 40+ lbs smoked cheese. Not to mention the ribs,briskets,butts,and fatty. Super happy with the Traulsen it was worth the work.

It was a busy but enjoyable way to spend the winter months. And very rewarding. Still have so much to learn. Just about every recipe needs tweaked for next year. The gourmet Italian sausage my wife created and that one gets filed away as a family secret. She nailed it!

Thanks for looking

Everything looks fantastic!

We have a hot Italian sausage recipe that we have developed over the years too!

I may have to put it in my will!

Point to you for some delicious looking food!!

Al
