Girlfriend has got me a Traeger for my Birthday, cant have it till may, what should i cook for my celebratory first use after seasoned?.
I see you live in Sonoma, CA. Do you know how the Sonoma Cheese Factory is doing? I use to get the best seasoning in the world from them by the pound but they had some kind of family falling out and were closed for the longest time. I haven't been able to get it for a few years.

Since you live there it might be worth checking out. It was called OX Roast.
Wow, I can't remember exactly what the configuration was. That's probably how I did it.
There is a short in it somewhere, so at some point I'm going to have to take it apart to find it. I'll let you know what I find.
Mneely hope all is well,,, I was just looking at your smoker build,,, do you have pics of how you wired the element in??? just a extension cord cut to your PID???? TIA Nice build by the way.
Is your first name Randy and is your father Doug and mother Vivian? Just a random shot in the dark...
Need help. I am making a smoker and want to use a 220V ( 2100 Watts ) coil burner. I need a thermostat that can go from 120° -325°. No idea what to get and how to wire. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Good day sir - I have bought a twin to your old Coles meat grinder - I am in need of the retainer ring washer to hold everything together - did you have any luck finding parts for this grinder???

Was wondering how you like the Hardy backer lining your smoker? Any pros and cons? I was going to line mine with aluminum, but the $$$$!!! Thank you!

I have the Ink Bird IBT-4X and downloaded the BBQ Go app.

The device is showing up in the Bluetooth menu of my iPhone 13 Pro-Max running iOS 16.2.

The app is not allowing me to connect with the device. It asks me to push a button on the device which does not exist.

I checked out PS Seasonings and saw the reviews on the breakfast sausage. They were very similar to TSM. Cost is close as well. Both sites had a few complaints about too salty, but still many 5 star reviews.

You mentioned that you really like their maple flavor. Have you done their regular breakfast sausage mix (#117)?

Hey Doug. Well, Thanksgiving is over. Hope you and yours had a good one!
I have a question about a Boston Butt my wife picked up at the grocery store. It has a sell by date of 12/5. If I get the cure on it before that date does that negate the sell by date? Hope that makes sense.

Just cure it. With whole muscle, any nasties are going to be on the surface anyhow, so you'll be fine.
Is Chef Jimmie J still with us or has he passed on? I'm getting the impression from what I read that he is no longer with us. If so, do you know who has taken over Food Safety? Backpacker

JJ passed away a few months ago. He has passed his knowledge on to many of us. If you have a food safety question, just post it in the food safety section & we will make sure you get the correct info!
