The Longopac Waste system is a revolutionary device in the world of sanitation and disposal. It completely changes the way that commercial processors and home users treat waste in their processing areas! What do you do if you are at the end of a processing day and your garbage bag is a quarter full of trimmings, guts or other waste material? With a traditional system you have no choice but to take out the entire bag and throw it out. That is an efficient use of materials and waste of money! What about when you throw something out and it has an unpleasant odor? Again, with traditional waste systems you would either have to deal with the smell all day or take the entire bag to the dumpster, costing you time and money. Old garbage bags systems take up a lot of space, are cumbersome to work with and the bags are more expensive and will often tear. Longopac has solved this by creating a system that allows you to customize the length of your bags, is on sturdy wheels for easy movement and takes up far less space than a traditional waste container. The holder is an open sided system with a ring at the top to create a sturdy opening for the bags to hang on. The “bags” come in cassettes, really it is a long tube open at both ends and tightly folded to a height of 6 inches. The cassette is then placed around the top of the holder and the open end is slid over and through the opening, the open portion of the bag that is hanging down is then zip tied closed and waste material is placed in the bag through the opening of the holder. Once the desired amount of material is in the bag, and remember it can be as long or as short as you want it to be, you then zip tie the top of it closed and then place another zip tie two inches above that. The second zip tie now becomes the bottom the next bag, to separate the bag simply cut between the zip ties with the provided scissors, which are conveniently attached to the stand so they cannot be lost, which as you commercial processors know, can happen all too often! The previous bag is now totally sealed and no waste material can spill out of it. Each order of cassettes also comes with replacement zip ties. We carry two sizes of Longopacs, the Mini and the Maxi. The mini is 33.5” from the base to the top, has an overall width of 15” and an opening of 11.5”, the bags for the mini are 213 feet long and have a diameter of 14”. This is an ideal size for smaller processing plants and home use. The Maxi has a height 41.5”, an overall width of 22.5” and the diameter of the opening is 16.5” making it a good size for large commercial processing businesses. The bags for Maxi are 360 feet long, have a width of 22.5" and come in black and clear. Both the Mini and the Maxi as well as the Cassettes are available for purchase at waltonsinc.com Coupons & Savings Just for our Meatgistics audience and YouTube subscribers, and because we know you guys like coupons and discounts, we’ve got a coupon just for you to save a bit extra!

Meat Hacks: How to Reverse Sear a Steak Learn How to Reverse Sear a Steak with Walton's and Meatgistics. Watch the video, read the guide, and then post your questions or comments below. Meat Hacks Why Reverse Sear a Steak? Reverse Searing a Steak is a process where you slowly cook the interior of the steak and then finish it off with high heat sear. If you follow this method you should end up with a steak that has the nice red color throughout the entire steak but still get that nice crust on the outside. The process does take a considerable amount of time but I promise you the end results are well worth the time and effort. To begin, let’s talk about selecting the best steak for a reverse sear. You will want to select a steak that is at least 1.25 inches thick, this is to ensure that you do not overcook the product with the initial low heat phase. Next you will want to look at the marbling of the fat and choose a steak with marbling that runs throughout as much of the cut as possible. The important next step that many people ignore is to take your steak out of the refrigerator 45 minutes prior to grilling which allows the meat to come up to room temperature. A cold steak thrown on the grill will not have the same taste or tenderness as a room temperature steak. After you take the steak out to allow it to equalize with the room temperature, then you will want to season it. You have probably heard some people say that salt and pepper is all you really need for a proper seasoning, while this can be true with extremely high end steaks such as Kobe, Wagyu or Heartland, the average and normal steak that we buy at from a local butcher, meat market, or grocery store can definitely benefit from additional seasoning. Our number one choice for steak seasoning is the Excalibur Ultimate Steak and Roast Rub. It is one of our best-selling shakers seasonings for a reason, it is simple yet delicious! Before we begin cooking, we’ll need to pre-heat our smoker to 210-220 degrees. Once it is up to temp and our steaks have rested at room temp for 45 minutes, then place the steaks in smoker and leave them until the internal temperature reaches around 125-135 degrees (depending on the desired level of doneness). This can take up to an hour depending on thickness of steaks and type of smoker. You will need a meat thermometer for an exact and consistent temperature reading. Walton’s recommends one of the fast reading digital thermometers so you can minimize the amount of time the smoker or grill is open. Two of our favorites are the Slimline Digital Waterproof Thermometer and the Folding Probe Thermometer, which may be one of our fastest reading thermometers. Just visit waltonsinc.com and looking under Smoking & Grilling and Thermometers to find one of these thermometers or over three dozen different other thermometers. Finishing by Searing Once our steaks reach the desired internal temp, remove them from the grill and cover them loosely with tin foil. We then have two options for finishing our steaks and searing them. We can either turn our smoker or grill up to 500+ degrees and use the grill grates or we can put a cast iron skillet in the grill or smoker and finish the steaks on that. This holding time is often called napping your steaks and there are different theories on its effectiveness. Since we need to take them off to allow the smoker/grill to come up to temperature, let’s assume that this method is effective. Once your smoker, grill, or skillet is up to temperature put your steaks back on the grill or skillet for about 1-2 minutes per side. This will give it the desired sear, texture, and crispy crust on the outside. We also like to put a dollop of butter on the steak after flipping it one time. In our opinion, a cast iron skillet is the best option for searing a steak and better than just using a plain grill or skillet. Another good option is to use a Grill Grate. We still like cast iron better, but Grill Grates are a great option which is better than searing them directly on a grill because it funnels the heat from your smoker or grill up to the aluminum grates, and doing this will increase the temperature on the surface by about 100 degrees. Once we’ve finished searing for 1 to 2 minutes per side, take off the grill and serve hot!

Stuffed Ribeye Steak - "Steak Sushi" Learn how to make Stuffed Ribeye - a.k.a. Steak Sushi. Take a tasty ribeye steak and transform it into a delicious meal by stuffing it with any other type of delicious foods, meat, cheese, or veggies. A simple recipe that can be adapted to fit any palate. If you thought that a ribeye couldn't get any better...then you would be wrong! Prep Time 30 Minutes Cook Time 1 Hour Ingredients 2 Ribeye Steaks Walton’s Ultimate Seasoning or Excalibur Steak & Roast Rub Butcher BBQ Steak House Grilling Oil 1 or 2 Bell Peppers 1 Small Onion 1 Zucchini Squash 8 oz Cheese Block 4 Roma Tomatoes Fresh Spinach Feta Cheese 2-3 Avacados Guacamole Mix Utensils Needed Flexible Cutting Mats Meat Tenderizer Mallet Steak Skewers 7" Granton Edge Santoku Slicing Knife 8" Granton Edge Slicing Knife Paring Knife Digital Waterproof Meat Thermometer Walton’s Can Cooler Glade Press & Seal or Other Plastic Wrap Instructions Basic instructions for making a stuffed ribeye are simple. Just take a ribeye steak and use a meat tenderizer mallet to pound it out flat. Layer your favorite ingredients, food, meats, cheeses, and veggies on top of the ribeye meat. Then roll the ribeye and contents into a log. Cook on the grill, smoker, or oven at about 300° F for about 1 hour (or until internal temp reaches 135° F). Slice and enjoy! Read below for the complete process and detailed instructions... Process The idea for making a stuffed ribeye came from a few different places. I had some leftover ribeyes that I wanted to do something different and unique with, and I had been talking about sushi when it was realized that I could probably make a meat and steak version of sushi. Substitute the rice for a flat, pounded out ribeye steak, fill it with a bunch of tasty treats, roll it up, grill it, and slice it into bite sized pieces, like sushi! Thus, “Steak Sushi” was created! The concept of it was great and it worked unbelievably well. However, by the time it was all said and done, I’d stuffed way too many other ingredients in it to be truly bite sized pieces. I made 2 stuffed ribeyes, with one kind of being bite sized, but the other one was pretty much the size of a stuffed pork loin. Still a great idea, and it turned into one of the most delicious tasting meals I’ve ever ate! So, let’s dive into it and walk you through the process on how to make your own “Steak Sushi”! First off, start by preheating your grill to about 300 to 400 degrees. I started at 375 for the first 15 minutes, then lowered the temp to 300 until it was finished, but if you start heating the grill hot while you do the rest of the prep work, you’ll save some time in the end. With the grill heating up, the first thing to do to prep the ribeye is place it on a cutting board and grab some plastic wrap and your meat tenderizer mallet. Place a sheet of plastic wrap (I use Glad Press N Seal because it’s a bit thicker than average plastic wrap) over the top of the ribeye and begin pounding on the meat with the mallet. Beef is a pretty tough meat, so if you’ve done this type of stuffed meat with a pork loin before, it will be a little tougher and require a bit of muscle and pounding to get the ribeye completely pounded out into a flat sheet. I kept going until the meat was about 3/8" thick or so. You could go a little thicker or thinner as long as you have enough surface area to add your ingredients and still roll it all back up. With the ribeye completely flattened out, you can begin to add a little bit of seasoning on the inside and start layering in all your ingredients. Your preferences may vary, but I used some chopped and diced onions and tomatoes, plus some sliced bell peppers, sliced zucchini squash, fresh spinach, and some hot habanero cheese! Whatever suites your taste, just pile it all in leaving an inch or two of space on the edge of the ribeye to allow you to roll it back up. With all the toppings loaded onto the ribeye, simply start on one end and roll the ingredients up in the steak until you’ve got a complete roll. The next step is to pin the steak to itself so it doesn’t unravel while you grill or smoke it. The easiest option I could think of was to use a package of steak skewers to hold the meat in place. Simply insert a steak skewer about every inch or two, and then wrap the edges of the steak roll back into itself and use another steak skewer to pin the edge back into the rest of the roll to keep any ingredients (specifically the cheese when it starts to melt) from coming out during cooking. To finish the prep before we start cooking, we need some seasoning to rub on the outside. Hands down, the two best seasonings for any type of steak is the Walton’s Ultimate Seasoning or Excalibur Steak & Roast Rub. Both are very, very similar and I will swap back and forth between either. There’s not a right or wrong reason for how much seasoning to use, but I like my food salty, so I have a tendency to get pretty liberal with it and really rub a ton of it on. Now the prep is all done. Your grill should be pre-heated by now, so just place them on the grill, grab a beer (that’s why the Walton’s Can Cooler was listed in the utensils needed!), sit back and relax for a few minutes while it starts cooking. Your cook time is going to greatly vary depending on how thick your stuffed ribeye roll ended up being. But, I started mine grilling at 375° F for about 15 minutes, then backed off the temp to 300° F for the remainder of the cooking. It took a little under an hour for the smaller stuffed ribeye, but the larger one took right at or just over 1 hour. What you will be looking for, is the internal temp of your additives and ingredients to be at least 135° and then the meat should be at least that, if not 140° to 145° F. About 30 minutes into the grilling process, I checked internal temps to see where I was at, and then I squeezed on some of the Butcher BBQ Steak House Grilling Oil. I was worried about a longer cook time on steak and drying it out, but thought the Butcher BBQ Grilling Oil would help keep it moist and flavorful…and I wasn’t wrong as the addition of the grilling oil was a fantastic decision! Once you hit the right internal temp, pull the stuffed ribeye steak rolls off and place them on a new and clean cutting mat. Let them sit for a just a few minutes and rest. You then need to remove and discard the metal steak skewers used to hold the steak roll together, then begin slicing to your desired thickness. If you slice too thin of slices then the inside ingredients won’t hold together, but I settled into slicing at just under 1 inch thick pieces. With everything sliced, grab a plate, and sink your teeth into a delicious creation that you will never forget! I also added some feta cheese as a topping, and made up a mixture of guacamole and pico de gallo (from fresh avocadoes, tomatoes, onions, and a package of guacamole seasoning) to use as a topping or dipping sauce.
