RON PARRISH thanks 😊

Jonathon well what was the result of the great dove hunt, we are all waiting on average shells per dove?

Craig Rice said in Got prime brisket for $3.21 a lb!:

processhead you should have pm 'ed me I am in Maine we could have met for lobster rolls lol !

Lol, I need to start paying closer attention to where everyone lives.

Denny O HerbcoFood Yep! That was a great game to watch! I think Oklahoma State is still probably the favorite in the Big 12 this year right now, but we’ll see who else is challenging for the title this year. With conference realignment stuff, I also expect one heck of a basketball conference going forward too, probably the best basketball conference.

have the coupon for the stuffing horn?

I haven’t added any cheese to these yet. Maybe in the future I’d try cheddar.

processhead I agree, time
For another freezer!

Denny O said in Best pellets for smoking in AmazeN or cold smoke generator?:

I’ve been using “Lumber Jack” pellets. 40 lb bag from $7 best sale to $11 everywhere around here.

Wait you are finding 40lb bags for $7-11? Locally Farm and Fleet sells Lumber Jack 20lb bags for $11 which is pretty good. I order pallets from factory and end up paying $14-ish per 40lb bag including the shipping to my house. Last order was $860 total for 1.2 tons (60 x 40lb bags).

My bad! 20lbs. They are buy 3 get one this month. Still 10/11 dollars a bag here. I’ll know better tomorrow, I’m going to get a few.

Spidey Now you have me thinking of using one of my black powder ramrods or something…

pr0wlunwoof I’m glad you were able to save the belly. My first mistake with bacon was adding to much cure. It tasted like a salt block. I didn’t know how to use the convention and thought adding more would be ok, lol

These folks have never failed me when I needed a seal or bearing without a part #. I have called them and gave them the measurements of the item and they either had it or could get it.

lkrfletcher That is beautiful. Well done!

OleSmokey sounds like you won her over. Congrats and good to see you back.

Jonathon Wow Jon, You have really been busy. Makes me feel lazy now!

dawg Right on!

Hopefully the states to the north that grow corn got the rain that they needed to have a good crop to make up for Kansas this year. I know it will be tough for the Kansas farmers and ranchers, I hope they will all make it through the year and have a great year next year.

Austin Hey Austin just a heads up the economy vacuum sealer states that it has a removeable tray for cleaning convience. I don’t believe this is true. Very good vacuum sealer and I am happy with it.

GYoung those look really good! I am going to have to get some of that mix to try now🍺

Even if there turns out to be a problem it’s better to be found and corrected. Waltons is one of the few who really care and will make things right.

Tex_77 Always good & interesting content. Thank you Tex for each & everything you do.

John Belvedere That’s the way to keep momma happy!👍

Idaho Smokey great to hear.

John Belvedere Pretty Cool!

processhead yes it is insulated to.

processhead I use the same 50% venison 40% pork and 10% beef fat with both my beef sticks and summer sausage.

Dave in AZ I need to look into that one.

Dave in AZ congratulations for using the metric system. It’s the best way to go as you can easily measure exactly what you need based on your kilograms of meat. We went metric 75 years ago in the Great White North. I’m hoping y’all will see the light and join the world.

Jesser Walton’s Fresh Seal Vac Sealer, this is what it is listed as.

Tex_77 Thanks, more interesting articles.

Tex_77 You are awesome! Thanks.

processhead I try to do the same & also do a Star San Spray on it, jut for storage as cannot be too much sanitization hardly & then spray with food grade silicone oil on all moving parts & metal finishes & check food grade silicone grease lubrication on all applicable parts for storage. It just makes starting up so much easier for the next run & cleaning up so much easier for the current run.

HokieFan99 glad it worked out. Congrats 👍

bocephus we are located North of Brainerd about 30 miles.

Sounds like fun. Wish I was closer.

mrobisr I pick c.

samspade That is for the Oct. giveaway 11lb stuffer and vac sealer, not member only drawing.

shoprat53 Then I think you would be very happy with a set of stuffer flushers.

Tex_77 good reading. Thanks 👍

So does sure gel just prefer it to carrot fiber basically powder milk and dry phosphate.

Outdoors19 I have done it. I had to add a bit of water to it to soften it up again to make stuffing easier.

Austin if you want to sell it all
As a package, I authorize use of this photograph haha!

Grimpuppy They look awful good to me, nice job.

cdavis
Thx Charley. Couldn’t get to sleep, thought I might as well type 😉 I love duck, and someone making an all duck stick got me excited lol.

Appears identical to the Pitboss Copper which is less than half the price at Lowes. I made a wooden dowel system with a few small blocks of wood and dowels that slide onto the top rack positions. allows me to hang 44" sticks draped in half over the dowels…15 lbs easy on 2 dowels…

shoprat53 just helping them out with some feedback that may be useful to someone in charge of their new software? They asked us to report bugs or issues earlier.

Dave in AZ said in Shipping dates instantly late?:

I recall seeing posts that Walton’s was looking into their UPS deliveries, and I know the web system is all new, just posting this as a datapoint that may help them ID issues in their new shipping system since it seemed weird.

Dave in AZ said in Forgot carrot fiber:

Best thing if you can work timing, is to mix and stuff same day, then leave it overnight already stuffed, if needed. Makes stuffing way easier, keeps you from breaking down the nice overnight bind during stuff.

👍

GI Joe I confirmed with people here, you can add it, but we don’t recommend it. It is going to retain more moisture than you want, while it isn’t going to hold anywhere near as much as carrot fiber, it might be enough to cause some issues with the drying cycle of your smoker/cook.

I understand, I usually cut them up before using them since they are too long. I just hate seeing them broken all up randomly to fit them into a box.

Sorry, I have not done fresh jalapenos. It would probably be good. I added crushed red pepper to the last bologna. It’s good but got a little too much. I have a friend that adds fresh ground peppers to his snack sticks but I’m not sure how much he adds.

I turned on my friends to the Holly seasoning and they tried to order some and it would have been $30 for shipping to Alaska. Did the USPS option go away? I ordered some about 6 months ago and it was $9 for shipping.

I also tried to use a freight forwarder out of Tacoma for the electric stuffer and was told they aren’t allowing that. Direct ship was $150 - I did it but it would be $25 for the freight forwarder cost to Anchorage.

Love the Walton products but it would great if it was easier and cheaper to get.

Thanks

Ryan
