    Maybe everyone bring a couple of their favorite items they have made. I would love to sample some of the awesome looking items made by members. It is a little risky eating something that other people make when you are not sure of their process but would bring a bottle of Pepto with me and roll the dice.

    Grimpuppy can’t be any worse than some of the army food I had to consume over the years, I’m in.

      I’d be in for this as well. Bacon curing/smoking seems to be a popular topic on the forum, fresh sausage making, stuffing, linking methods would be good too. Pairing drinks or recipe building would be a fun topic too. By recipe building I mean matching proteins with sides and or sauces. There is an annual Bacon and Bourbon event in Wichita at the Hartman Arena, maybe we could time something around that event?

          HerbcoFood the original Freddies restaurant is in wichita as well. White castle started in wichita, interestingly enough there are no longer any white castles in Kansas. Wichita has excellent aviation history/museums. Doc, one of the few B-29 bombers still in flight condition, is hangered in wichita. Wichita is getting some great breweries and has a highly renowned ramen restaurant. The Anchor is a restaurant downtown, they have an adjoining butcher shop where all their protein is sourced, cut, ground and assembled. That would be a cool place to visit as a group as well.

            RafterW I was watching the History Channel earlier this year about the history of Dominion’s, Pizza Hut, KFC, etc. I had no idea until then that Pizza Hut started there.

                Yeah, it absolutely should be “Meat up” seems like an obviously missed layup by us! When we began talking about this we discussed a multi-day event that would include in person demonstrations of making a few different sausages like snack sticks, brats, and whatnot. We will have tons of samples. I also think we will have some prepared classes on specific subjects. Does anyone have things they think would be interesting to sit through a talk on?

                  I am looking at a fishing trip to Arkansas, sure hope it would work out to stop by on the way there or back. Trip is still in the early planning days no set time yet.

                              @dennyo He’s going to a class for dry cured meats. He should have more information for you after that class.

                                Jonathon Yes it is very deep and that is why I ask for it because there is not much info for the home processor . The info that is available is all commercial based with products that we cannot get, or at least not in home quantities. There is a little info on cold mustard, grape seed extract, and vitamin E, but nothing real solid or suggested amounts. The short course should help with dry curing, but I’m not sure that it will do much for oxidation solutions, but maybe you can ask the right questions and get some answers outside of the syllabus.

                                Just a thought, it is something that all of us meat processors deal with whether they know it or not.

                                    mrobisr Vitamin E is going to be your best bet as it is the most available in normal amounts. Oxidation of fats was on the syllabus so I am assuming they are going to cover the entirety of the topic but I’m not that “up” on dry curing.

                                    @DennyO Chatted at ya, want to meet up for a dinner one night?

I’ve got a trip planned for the 6th - 10th, other than that My daughter and 2 little’s are going to be back the 22nd through May 3rd. Haven’t held them in 3 years now. I could slip away for an evening though.

                                        mrobisr Vitamin E is going to be your best bet as it is the most available in normal amounts. Oxidation of fats was on the syllabus so I am assuming they are going to cover the entirety of the topic but I’m not that “up” on dry curing.

                                        @DennyO Chatted at ya, want to meet up for a dinner one night?

                                        Jonathon oh ok I didn’t see it listed on their website or brochure must be and addition, thanks. Vitamin E and grape extract seem to be what I read alot about, but haven’t found hard numbers on the amounts.

                                          So far, not one suggestion for a walk-up bar and a bourbon tasting room.

                                          PapaSop we can team up on that and run that session.
