    I’ve been making some different fresh sausages, but now I’m dying to try my hand at kielbasa. I’d like to make some fresh & smoked, but I only have a Weber Smokey Mountain smoker. I’m concerned about the cook schedules and how low & consistant I can keep the temp. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks

        So again as I mentioned I’m a newbie to the site, what’s the difference between team blue & team orange?
        Thanks

                            Lol! Another sabotage I put in for Team Blue a long time ago. Probably at least a year ago. Once you join Orange, you can’t leave! I guess I can change that now though.

                              Austin I knew it! Another despicable act of terrorism perpetrated against us peacefully team blue members. But honestly I show I have rejoined the TB group but the badge wont show. And almost at 500 but am still a regular contributor and not power user?

                                samspade I got you added to the power users group. We’ll have to look into why it is not automatically joining people…

                                To change your badges, you have to go to edit your profile and then choose what group titles show up.

                                On mobile, go to the menu and look down the list for Edit Profile. On desktop, click your user icon in the top right and choose Edit Profile.

                                  Austin I was able to fix the upvote being orange and download being blue but removing the badges is a fairly low blow! I’d like to point out that Team-Orange and Team-Grey don’t participate in these underhanded tactics. It’s ONLY Team Oranj that does it and despite that it is still 228 to 217 with the good guys having 228

                                      Hi all, jut finished up 5 lbs. bacon with Walton’s imitation bacon #2. That’s with 3 1/2 lbs. venison and 1 1/12 lbs. pork sausage. I followed the Meatgistics video and then smoked it for about 5 hrs. till it reached 170 deg. When adding the water had a brain fart and put in twice as much as required. After thinking about it over night, I remembered that carrot fiber will absorb 26 times it weight of water. Since I had used it tin the mix originally , I added a 1/4 cup more in the am. remixed it, refrigerated o’nite and put it the smoker this am. Turned out famtastic!!! I put in all the steps so that folks realize that just because one might screw up a step in making a product, there may be a solution. In this case, there was a solution and it worked out perfectly. Good cooking to you !!! Forever Blue
