If you are and old timer in this community or a new guy as I am this is what makes these folks the very best! I had commented about Kyle’s sauerkraut and had asked him questions about his recipe. Well fast forward he ask me for my addy and he sends me his homemade kraut and and says if you like it here is the recipe. Well I ate some out of the jar immediately upon opening the box and it was fantastic, but tonight I made it with potatoes, onions, and smoked polish kielbasa and it was absolutely wonderful.

I have played with the idea of making my own kraut, but Kyle has made it clear that I have to, thanks brother you are the best.

I used Dr Pain’s boudin recipe to make some boudin balls for our upcoming crawfish boil and I must say they are so delicious! This is the second tray that we put up, thank you for the recipe Dr Pain easy and very tasty.

New batch, a little over 15lbs headed for drying.

Thanks Walton’s for the beautiful and very useful cutting board! Thanks Meatgistics members for making this such a fun place to hang out in.

Finally remembered my dry cured genoa salami, wanted to pull it at 35% weight loss, but it actually ended up being 40%. While there is a slight dry ring it is totally acceptable for 40% and it will completely go away after being in fridge for a couple weeks aging. The taste was very good and the texture was actually amazing, next pepperoni.

Chicken fajita tacos loaded with fresh cilantro from my garden.

2 Spanish Lomo are now added to the chamber.

Thanks Walton’s for the high speed low drag cap!

Had and extremely busy weekend, but managed to get Kabanosy (another thread) and Polish smoked sausage done, thanks you guys you are a real motivation.

Sorry I put the cart before the horse as I posted first and then came in to introduce myself. Been making sausage, jerky, and ham on and off for 45 years 2 of which was professionally at a large turkey plant, but have decided to come back to the art. I love the traditional foods and recipes, but I also love to experiment and try new recipes. I use the K.I.S.S method (keep it simple stupid) and Occam’s razor (the simplest explanation is usually the right one). I am a born again disciple of Jesus Christ and if I offend you I promise you that was not my intention, but simply my poor writing skills rearing their ugly head.

GWG8541 Now I’m hungry, fantastic looking burger.

calldoctoday Oh my that looks good!

johnsbrewhouse I’m sorry my friend my heart goes out to you guys.

Grimpuppy They look terrific.

RafterW I have 30 Bielefelders at 5 weeks, good looking chicks.

johnsbrewhouse This is my first year container gardening and I am seeing the success I had hoped for. Before my back going south I had the traditional garden and never had any problems, but this is different for sure. I am wondering now if I should add gravel in the bottom next time, what advice do you have?

Grimpuppy Nice

ND Mike Try it you will not be disappointed I promise.

johnsbrewhouse congratulations!

HerbcoFood Wow that is fine dining.
