Tex's Top Picks

Jonathon

Tex_77 Great job man, thank you! This is probably more helpful to new users than anything we would give. I know I take more stock from something a customer says than something an employee says! Agree with almost everything BUT on the Weston 330 lb will soon be replaced, we have a 600 lb platform scale coming that will be in the same price range and it will have a low weight setting for being able to get accurate readings at under 5 lb!

Glad to hear you like the Argentinian marinade that much, one of our commercial salesman just asked me about it and though I have used it, I used your love of it as a recommendation, so that was helpful.

Jonathon I’ll probably need to test that scale out. You need to try the Argentinean marinade how I said to use it, and I think you will come around to loving it. Also feel free to pin this post, so new users can easily find it.

Well written, Tex. Nice review of what works and a starting point for someone shopping for seasonings,

That is a pretty spectacular list. I’ll be referring to it often, I’m sure. On a side note: nice Clint Eastwood pic. The Outlaw Jody Wales was one of many, many movies made better by starring Eastwood…my absolute favorite actor. (I probably shouldn’t be writing this here, but I’m new, and don’t know any better. )

Jonesy i wouldn’t worry about it. A lot of times topics go down rabbit holes.

Tex_77 Thank you…!! I’m a new user and this post is so helpful, I’m definitely going to print a copy for reference. I don’t post much but always reading/learning all the great info from everyone here In Meatgistics.

Tex_77 thanks for taking the time to do this. As I keep adding to my arsenal of meat processing at home, this will be valuable. Thanks again.

Tex_77 great post. Lots of good information I’ll be using. Thanks for taking the time to write this up. I especially like knowing the heat levels of the seasonings because I have young children that aren’t so fond of the heat. Thanks again.

Great post, I have a 5 lb stuffer, wish I had the 11 lb. Maybe someday!

Great post. And good advice. I Started with a kitchen aid grinder. It was lots of work and too slow to keep the meat cold. Got the walton 11lb stuffer. Then got a good deal on a 32 grinder. Now can use the KA on small grinds and 32 on bigger. The more tools in the box the easier the job.

Tex_77

Updated to add grill grates. And fix all the broken links from the new site. Austin

Thanks, Tex_77 .
I especially appreciated the tips on casings, thermometers, and sanitizer recommendation. Those items are the types of things you do not want to trial and error with.

Austin

Tex_77 I’ll have to check out the broken links. We shouldn’t have had too many or many at all, so I might have a problem somewhere…
