    Buffalo Bacon

    Jeff, you only got 1 nipple??? LOL! The 2 slabs I'm curing right now came from this piece which I believe is the left rear half of a belly (although, this could be the front right half ) . It looks like a small part of the ham is included. That's what it looked like before I cut it...

    Buffalo Bacon

    I'm doing a basic dry cure and the Maple cure, both from Ruhlman's book. These are quarters of a belly, one being 2 lbs 11.4 oz and the other 2 lbs 15.5 oz. The Maple cure is the smaller piece and I added several pieces cut as trimmings to that bag to make up the 5 lbs per the recipe. all...

    Oily new wsm?

    Both of mine had mainly oily grates to prevent them from beginning to rust while in shipment/storage. Washing and/or pre-heating the WSM should take care of that. I always washed my grates prior to use just to make sure. Bill

    Pork Loin Back ribs????

    The weight sounds like loin backs (baby backs to some). Loin back bones are curved where as spares are straight (well, almost straight) .. That's the tell-tail sign. I prefer my ribs dry but I like to change things up every once in a while and go wet. Depending on your WSM temps, 6 hours will...

    need wsm door help

    There's no way the door assy would work in the order listed .. Appears to be in random order. Yeah, figure out what works for you. But, make sure that one side is tight enough to the other to stop free spinning .. Also, has to be loose enough to turn. You're welcome. Bill
