Thanks Dave for letting me know about the smell, I can save my power. I'll bet though that some day my daughter in law will walk in and say what's that smell. I call her super nose!
Does anyone know is it best to keep it out of the light or not? Don

I was inspired by some members to make my own sauerkraut. I ordered a gallon jar with an air lock. It came this morning so I went to the grocery and bought two heads of cabbage to get a batch started. I used a head and about a third of the second one. I got it sliced and in the jar, salted and stomp...

Smokin Don

Charlie, the smoke flavor is slight but there. I used some mixed hardwood blend of pellets. Not sure if the peeled ones or unpeeled ones take on more smoke, only my second try at it. With this I didn't use my Amazen tube and think I had more smoke taste when I did on the first batch. Everyone that h...

That sure does look like some great bread Ross! I envey you, I'm not a great bread baker but have done some good no knead bread. I could eat bread and butter with all meals, that's not sandwiches. Don

I love potato soup and got the idea if I smoked some potatoes it might be better. I smoked the potatoes and some onions too on my Traeger pellet Smoker. It all turns out pretty good. This was our supper tonight. Potatoes and onions smoking http://i1039.photobucket.com/albums/a474/deains/Traeger%20Fo...

Well ask her if she wants to run away with me and learn how to make sausage, since you won't learn how! :wink: Hmmmm.... tell her there's ice cream on Sundays and she can ride my pony! Oh, and I almost forgot... I've got the best lookin' mustache in the Rocky Mountains, even if I have to mention it...

Shucks Don, if I tied into a batch of those beautiful home made noodles, my body would think I'd died and gone to heaven! Please let your wife know that we think she must be a terrific spouse and a good cook too! :wink: Best Wishes, Chuckwagon CW my wife loved the compliment!! Since I do most all o...

Four of my favorite foods at once GG! Nice cook and pics! Don

Sorry I guess I will stick to posting homemade foods. My butcher is 3rd generation German family owned and uses only minimum ingredients as you would in homemade sausage. It is not typical grocery store sausage. He is only a two minute drive away so very convenient. Besides his fresh stuffed sausage...

Jan 01 2013 New Years 2013 and I will eat my good luck dinner of pork and kraut. I first started this tradition one New Year`s Day over 20 years ago, I don`t remember exactly when. I ran into a friend at the grocery and he had a can of sauerkraut and some pork. I ask is that all you`re buying and he...

Jan the pickled sausage looks good, I saved the recipe & have to try that! Getting ready for New Years eve dinner, rib eyes and baked potatoes. Happy New Year! Don

Is pickled pork available in markets up Ohio way? I remember having pickled pork products available in ethnic bars in upstate New York, but sadly we don't have much of that around here. Any suggestions as to what I might use? That looks like an interesting variation on our usual Louisiana red beans...

Jan I have used Amaze-n-Tube smoker. I have the 12 inch and get a good 4 hours of smoke from it. http://www.amazenproducts.com/ I see they have an Australian dealer too. Don
