Roll Call (Start Here First)Well, well, well. there is a Santa! Fat Bob here…at long last. You guys all panicked when you couldn’t get a notification from the forum for a few days. I haven’t got any for a couple months or shipping conformations! I’ve been working with Jon, sending any information I could. I had him delete the Fat Bob account because I’ve seen having a space in you name after PHP changes the rules on user names and doesn’t tell any one. We were going crazy and all of a sudden numerous members had the issue I put up with months. ANYWAY, I’m back! Post count etc. is probably gone but no big.
Watch the wife & children!

Waltons #12 Meat GrinderMcjagger Nothing to it. Grind the root into a bowl, pack it into 1/2 pint jars leaving 1/2 to 3/4 headspace. Ad 1/4 tsp. canning salt if you want. Pour White Vinegar over to the top. Wait a couple minutes and top it off again. Keep it in the refrigerator. Do Not process it in hot water bath or pressure can. It will seal but looses all it’s flavor.
I’ve kept it for up to two years like this. That much vinegar nothing can live there not to mention the sulfuric acid in that stuff! LOL
edit: Let it set for a couple weeks before opening. If it starts to dry out just pour more vinegar in it.

Oklahoma Joe Bronco Pro@NDMike I do all my smoking on a stick burner. Best way to control it for low temp is a small fire to start like processhead said. Flue wide open and I usually close the firebox vent all the way. If the temp starts to drop just crack the vent on the fire. When you hit the stall throw in some more wood and give it more air.

Porch Pirates!!!Happened to us last year Bob. That’s why all the cameras went up. If I catch them the gun come out. I tend to be a redneck about that crap.

Waltons #12 Meat GrinderThe #12 went on sale today if you’ve been waiting. My #8 Weston Went up in smoke grinding horseradish root so this, for me, was good timing. See if I can torture this one next year.

Pulled porkWe make them all the time. Drop a few apples in the grinder and strain through cheesecloth for injector. Pomp them up with all they’ll hold. Cover with SPG and spritz with !/2 and !/2 cider vinegar and water every 40-45 minutes. Haven’t had a bad one yet.

Tough casingFrom the site Joe mentioned:
Why are the casings tough after cooking fresh sausage?
- Sausage was cooked in a pan too hot and too quickly.
- Casings were not soaked long enough.
- Origin of casing.
- Sausage was under stuffed
