        Austin Gravydave from Upper Michigan. I Enjoy grilling on my Brinkman pitmaster deluxe which I have had for 10 -15 years. I also have a Smoke Hollow Propane smoker, and a Charbroil SS propane Grill. The pitmaster is the grill of choice. I am fairly new at meat processing 3yrs… Kind of a hobby. My favorite is Colorado Jerky. But have done summer sausage, wiener sausage, snack sticks, and some attempts at fresh sausages. My favorite Items to grill are Lamb chops, and bacon wrapped venison back strap.

                        michaelp plenty of room to hang meat, aging room was engineered to hold 100K plus of weight…the drip cooler will hang another 40K easily.

                          michaelp My initial recommendation is to look for a smokehouse to buy for the consistency in temp and smoke you can get from a nice prebuilt smokehouse, but I also don’t have a lot of experience in building one. We do have a book on our website about smokehouse design but I haven’t personally read through this one. Hopefully we can get some input from some others around here who might have built one or have more knowledge. You might try posting a separate post in the Smoking & Grilling section and ask for some more advice there.

                              Checking in from West Tennessee. Been hunting and fishing for about 30 years. Started processing my own about 3 years ago. I use a MasterBuilt electric smoker and love the flavor. Considering building an old school smokehouse out back. Looking to gain knowledge from everyone here!

                                  Kerry here from Northern California moving to Natalia, Texas!!! City girl with a country heart! I love to grill and through Walton’s superior products have made Bratwurst and Italian Sausage. Can’t wait to get settled in and have space to process our own venison. Walton’s has great quality products from seasonings to casings. Smoker in place on our 10 acres so that is my next challenge! Love this new forum!

                                      Jeff from Kansas City, MO here. I was introduced to Walton’s from several of our city’s best chefs. I have never had a reason to shop anywhere else since. Great products, excellent service.

                                          New to sausage making in the last year, tired of paying my processor big $$$ for a sub par product. Found Waltons online, watched videos and bought their product…Bam. I’ve learned a ton by trial and error, scouring the Internet. Now my game is on. my best so far is Willies sticks with hi temp cheddar, small amt of citric acid , sure gel and some Syrian Aleppo peppers for a little kick. Look forward to learning a bunch more from the group!!!
