When I was in grad school I lived in Tuscaloosa and got to eat the original with big daddy and his wife. It was always a favorite of mine as well as all the sport broadcasters covering Alabama football as well as Paul Bear Bryant, who ate there often.

Chef yes I had when I was a kid. My Uncles would take me to some of the games and we would stop by there. Some of the best ribs and times I remember. It has been 40 years or better. Seems like there was a Wooden screen door on the place way back when. Am I remembering that correctly?

drbrown35801 you sure are remembering correctly. To the left of the building was a steel drum with a fire under it where he made the sauce. Once inside, his wife was always what seemed like she was sleeping, would open her eyes and mop the ribs with the sauce and then go back to sleep. I think one could set their watch on her doing this. I was there in the early 80’s, but lots of fond memories.

Carl here from Pennsylvania. I have been involved in the pork processing buisness for about 25 years. We always injected and brined our hams and bacons for 6-7 days before smoking. Watching your videos you are saying that you can now add aditives that would allow me to go to smokehouse in 12 hours after injecting? We have tryed a tumbler but did not think we had the flavor of brining for 6 days. Could you help me out here. I would like to speed up the process to get meat out the door faster by not having to hold the fresh meat in freezer extra week till ham and bacons are finished. Thank you!!

I do have a question as I’m a newbie. When I make snack sticks, is it ok to mix all the seasoning and cure and all then throw it back in the fridge for a couple days before putting in the casing?

Never saw this until today. Better late than never…
My name is Tim. I am from NW Pennsylvania, practically right on the lake. I enjoy making food and beverages with my own hands utilizing traditional and modern technology. I try to utilize everything when doing things from scrapple to soap making. I started cutting deer when I was 14 after I realized how much money it cost me to get 2 deer processed. I butchered deer for friends to buy a grinder and stuffier. Made sausage for people to buy new equipment. I read a lot and watch youtube to learn new things. I came here because a lot of my research placed me here. Started looking at products online and finally tried some stuff. Wish I had tried sooner. You folks have done all the hard work. I just have to follow some instructions and turn out great products. I have a long-term goal of opening a small deli/sandwich shop where I can sell my own fresh, smoked, or dry cured meat. I raise animals and butcher them at home and also hunt and fish. Over the years I have tried to do many different things so I have a little bit of knowledge about a lot of things. This site is helping me improve some of my skills. Most of my friends appreciate my creations through free meals but I always felt like I was obsessing over nothing. I’m glad to find a whole site of people passionate about making great food. -
