@mfrievalt awesome setup. Now I’m really jealous

@bgoofy1 It was amazon. Just add that in or search for that product number at end of link. But it is the “SunPatio Smoker Cover 40 inch, Heavy Duty Waterproof Electric Smoker Grill Covers, UV and Fade Resistant, Square Gas BBQ Smoker Cover for New Model Smokers Masterbuilt, Char-Broil and More” 28"x22"x39" option.

I have not tried this cure with venison, so I am not speaking from direct experience. A fresh leg of pork is about as different from a venison hind quarter as night and day in terms of amount of fat and the flavor profile of lean pork compared to lean venison. So if you were to use the cure on a venison hind quarter, I don’t think you would never mistake the finished product as a regular pork ham. On the other hand, you may like the how it turns out. I have had really good success making pastrami out of venison hind quarter roasts.

@bocephus - They re out there. I just got a $600 delta bench sander for $60 on craigslist. I am setting up a woodworking shop in the garage for retirement. That being said, the PK100 is going to have to get a cover and go outside.

Click on the pic to see better. Not sure why it is like that

@craigrice I understand I have ordered and actually won some seasoning a couple years ago on the cyber Monday stream. They are great

@lkrfletcher Be patient. It takes time for all of the groups to appear. Also there is a 10% discount code:VD10 that is good through 11/30/21 This discount is good for Veterans only!

Sale on everything ends monday. I believe

@bob-stehlik Yes it can definitely be used in an air fryer, I also use it on legs and thighs on a charcoal grill with great success.

@randie-n I’m lucky to get a text out where we hunt. Data is kinda out of the question.

@twilliams You can’t post video to Meatgistics. If the video is on your phone or computer upload the file to youtube or Facebook or something and post the link to the video. https://youtu.be/NVyyA6sJTAw

@deepwoodsbutcher said in Sharpening steel: @chef An F. Dick stuffer would be an awesome piece of kit! They do some good work. Occasionally they show up on the used equipment market. I can’t picture myself ponying up for a new one though.

Thanks to you both!

@bocephus said in Cheetos: @dr_pain I think it would take more than 1 beer to make it taste ok. Hahahaha! I agree. May also take quite a few to get the taste out of your mouth

@kschroeder-dvm as everyone else has stated, keep meat very cold, grinder head assembly in the freezer, second grind will go slower, no need for stuffing plunger. I use a stuffer to load my bulk bags.

I do love going to the meat counter at my local grocer and ordering a bunch of beef fat, I like to say it loud so people can hear, I’d like to think that they say, “did he just ask for 20lbs of beef fat?”

That’s what i wish I had. Started to look into the coolbot and make my own small one at some point

Wow. Glad you found the issue
