This is my 500 post and just wanted to thank Waltons and everyone there who make this place so special. Also thanks to the contributors here. You all provide great guidance and support. Whether is someone new or an established user.

Dont usually post my food but thiese turned out nice. Two beef rib slabs with prime rib rub in the smoker for 5 hours. Two spachcocked chickens with chicken chicken rub on the grill. Some homemade baked beans. Oven baked asparagus and a cheaters stouffers mac n cheese. I’m stuffed.

Ok! Here are the results.trimed my prime brisket (Thanks SAMS Club.) Coated with brown sugar, salt and pepper, garlic and onion powder and let sit in the fridge overnight. Put in my Meatstick thermometers and placed the point on top rack and the flat underneath . Ran a pecan smoke over the cuts for three hours and then continued at 220 until the point and flat hit and cubed it for burnt ends. Wrapped the flat in butcher paper and waited through the stall till internal hit 204. Rested the flat in a towel for 30 minutes. I just couldnt wait. Served with beans and potatoe salad. HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE.

Just a good diner with the family. Mashed Potatoes, portabella mushroom gravy, Green beans and meat loaf.

Here was my two waiting as I came out of the store with the weekend bbq.

I cant believe this. I offered the guy 300 for a 5000 slicer. He said ok. Went over to pick it up and it didnt spin the blade but the controls lit up. I’ve got a guy, so I took it. Got it home and saw the carriage was not set to zero. Closed it and everything works. Now to clean sanitize and lubricate. Got to buy a cart cause it weighs 100lbs or more.

Thanks for all the support. Been here a year and I’m making products I’m proud of. Here is the second batch of the 25 lb weekend.

Merry Christmas to everyone here. You all have been a source of inspiration and enjoyment and I look forward to interacting with all of you in 2022. Stay safe and have a wonderful holiday.

Thanks to all who helped keep my wits when I undertook this. Confidence level sure went up.

samspade wouldn’t be right not to show the bounty.

Thank you again Waltons.

Holy banger batman. That is a great pile of sausage. Good job.

Does anyone use those sharpening systems with the knife clamp and stone on a sliding rod?

It just keeps looking better and better

Dave in AZ what a great description on this recipe. I will be easy to duplicate. Cant wait to try it . Thanks for posting it.

Looks great really thinking bout selling my commercial slicer and getting a smaller one

Grimpuppy after bratfest be sure to update with what you found out. Maybe something we are all doing regardless of the make of the grinder.

Grimpuppy yeah try customer service they will help you out or contact Jonathan or Austin

G.Carroll welcome. Find lots of answers here without any trolling. I agree with the guys. Tighter the better. You can watch a few videos in the university section specific to what you want to make. So enjoy and welcome

Mine came today. Nice job on it Waltons.

Ken1261 There maybe other units operating on the same circuit and the startup draw trips the gfi since it’s a fast acting circutbreaker. I have a toaster oven and on one and if I try to use the grinder it will pop the gfi as soon as I flip the switch.
