    Howdy, folks. New user here from Houston, TX.

    My experience in meat processing is mostly with wild game. My family has been processing down our own deer for decades. I also grew up on a cattle ranch and we run a small flock of sheep as well, so we butcher a sheep or two a year. We use a local processor for all of our beefs.

    TBD determined on my favorite seasoning. Ordered quite a few different ones already to stock up for hunting season. Can’t wait to try them and report back.

    The smoker I use is the Camp Chef XXL Vertical Pellet.

          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.

          Gravydave I have one of those Brinkman Pitmasters too. I have had it about 13 years or so. It would probably be better, but I left it out a lot with a cover. Have you found anyway to improve on it, make it perform better, etc.? I used to put a welding blanket & a few moving blankets over the main section, but you have to be real careful doing that. The main section is not too bad, but the heat really gets to the offset.

            Howdy Guys,

            I am from and live in Southeast Georgia
            I have not done a tone of processing, maybe a few deer here and there.
            I enjoy pepperoni, salami, and all forms of sausage and have just stocked up on some fresh sausage seasoning and equipment from waltons.
            I have a ceramic cooker, a flat top grill conversion, a Stumps Gravity Feed clone, and a reverse flow tow behind, sous vide, Oven fryer, convection oven, Commercial style deep fryer, and a cowboy ring.

            I enjoy cooking and have been working on getting “tooled up” and sharpening my skills on things outside of traditional bbq pork dishes.

            My short term plans include: Taking a hack at the Canadian bacon tomorrow. The Chicago Brats maybe this weekend and Kielbasa in a few weeks.

                    From Sonoma County Ca by way of North Carolina, I love BBQ and smoking. My hubby and I have a small Masterbuilt electric smoker, Weber kettle and gas grill. We are looking to learn more ways to use the smoker and are embarking on a quest to make and smoke brats, hot dogs and more!

                                    Grandpa1 Look at the groups. Jonathon, the head of all that is Walton, is the blue team. Austin, while the boss, is the orange team who does not participate as much and not near as helpful. GO TEAM BLUE . Austin, just joking, you and Jonathon are both so wonderful. Maybe we need a team Waltons. It should be blue in color. LOL
