kyle I agree this is where I get away from all the BS in the world…I’ve had to unfollow some friends on Facebook nothing but political $hit

Made a few brats on the first day of the hopefully better new year…24 lbs pork butts with half Sheboygan bratwurst seasoning other half Lem bratwurst seasoning. Had a bit of carrot fiber left over so I threw that in with them. Ground through 3/8 then 3/16 plate and stuffed in natural 32-35 tubed casing. Turned out great

Hey fellow meatheads i never did introduce myself, I’m Jeremy from North Dakota. Been here for awhile just never really asked anything or posted anything till recently…I have a few posts on here. I love to read all the recipes/stories /and information… there’s a bunch. I been making sausage for probably 10 yrs just the usual sticks/jerky/brats/and ring sausage. If anyone has any info on a homemade propane smoker I’m all ears…I have one that I used a side burner off a grill…but it gets way to hot…it’s not insulated basically a 1/8 thick metal 2x2x4 box… I’ll post pics in a few days

I like the grey/black best but if that’s not a choice…gotta go team blue

MTArcher I smoke mine horizontal in my green mountain with the bull rack system…they stay round…I can get bout #10 or so only thing is I have to rotate the racks but it works for me

Tommie I just bought a inkbird ibt -4xp from Amazon I like it cause you can set a high and low temp alarm it has 4 probes 3 for meat and one for ambient I used one of the meat probes along with the ambient one to see if I had any differences in my temp and sure enough I did there’s a app for it I think it was around $50

Welcome @NDMike good looking setup there I’m from ND too…a lot of great people here with excellent info

JohninPa I don’t tie the ends I’ll just pinch how ever long I want my sticks to be…for me my sticks are probably 16-18 inches long so when I get that length I just pinch and cut with a scissors if that makes sense

chippewa we lost our thrust washer once, in a pinch we just made one outta a 5 gallon bucket lid…I think we still use it like that

Congratulations ND Mike keep up the great work and posts…I don’t post much (I’m more of a reader than a poster) but I’m glad I found meatgistics a lot of great people and everyone is willing to help one another out
