Roll Call (Start Here First)
-
Howdy from Wyoming. I’ve been smoking foods, curing meats and making sausages for around 40 years. I cook on a vintage Big Chief smoker, two drum smokers, two Big Green Eggs and a SNS kettle. I joined the community because I never stop learning and like experimenting with different methods.

Hello everyone. I am a farmer and a professional sheep shearer. We have always raised and processed our own meat but I am looking to take things to a whole new level. I am currently building what I call a deer cut shop, but honestly it’s going to be my new playground. I found Walton’s when I was researching equipment and then found Meatgistics. I have since realized how much I don’t know!! I love reading this every day, and since I spend hours in my truck traveling, I have become a fan of the podcast. Our county here in VA has approved us to put in a slaughterhouse and retail store on our farm. The deer shop is my first step towards this as I will be using it as a test kitchen as well . I have spoken with several people at Walton’s both before I made my first order, and since then, and have been nothing but impressed. I am typically more of a lurker on a board like this but something tells me that might change. You guys have a great thing going here.
