Hi everyone, my name is John from El Dorado, KS, just outside of Wichita. New to sausage making and looking for some good recipes and grilling tips. Made hatch green chili pork brats last weekend and made Jambalaya and extra links for lunches. Loved both. Any other suggestions on seasonings or meats to try? Recipes? I’m liking the Excalibur Seasonings with some spice especially the hatch green chili and hot buffalo wing. What are you cooking lately?
@johng-0 welcome to the group. Lots of good info here.

@JohnG-0 welcome to the community. A lot of information here and folks with variety of experience willing to share. Jump into the conversations, share and ask. I would go with a breakfast sausage (Holly) and a fresh style of brat (Blue Ribbon). Lots to learn here.

Cypress, Texas
Novice in meat processing, however been grilling/smoking since I was old enough to check the fire.
What is your favorite meat snack or seasoning flavor? Favorite meat snack are the buck sticks the processor I use: Pepper jack cheese with jalapenos, 50/50 pork to venison mixture.
What is your current smoker or grill? All Seasons Feeder’s off set, All Seasons Feeder’s Table top and Weber Genesis Natural Gas Grill. Having to have multiple propane bottles and worrying about refills is overrated!

#1 Bourbon Peppercorn
#2 Ranch
#3 Fajita
#4 Willies
Current smoker is the Pro Smoker 100SS 240 volt electric

twilliams Buck sticks = snack sticks = slim jims, it all just depends what region you live in.

calldoctoday They are the exact same as snack sticks/slim jims, just some regions have different names for them. I don’t use the processor for everything but snack sticks is one of them.

So I was looking at all the new members in our community, and I thought it might be nice to bring this thread back up so maybe people could introduce themselves.

Ok guys, going to try this again. If you new to the community, introduce yourself here to the rest of us. Tell us a little about yourself.

Oh, I suppose I’ve never introduced myself…
Checking in from just outside Toronto, Canada. No fancy equipment here, just a kettle and briquettes via the snake method.
I also take my butts out of the kettle after 4-6 hours, wrap it, and cheat using the oven to get it to 195-200. I await your condemnation!
