Update on Kevin's butt rub - I put some into a beef clod that I ground for hamburgers. Added a little olive oil and rosemary on top. Mmmmmm. Excellent. Way to go Kevin. Richard

Chris - if you are looking for store bought hot sauce (and there are many to choose from), you could check out the El Yucateco products available in Latin grocery stores. Very inexpensive and there are several varieties, some of which are decently hot. El Yucateco I think Dave's Insanity Sauce...

I use Morton Tender Quick when making bacon. Recently on a trip I found a 7.5 lb. bag of Morton Sugar Cure which I have not opened, but it appears to be the same product except it has a packet of spices that are to be mixed with the cure (1.25 tsp spice/1 cup of cure). Have you used the Morton...

Here's another V2480 user with a unit that isn't doing well. Purchased it in 2006. I just threw it in the trash can and purchased the heavy duty Food Saver from Cabelas. I have hopes that this one will work better and longer. If not, it'll be the last FS I buy. Richard

Sean wrote that the Moccamaster's carafe is hard to clean. I have the 1.25 liter glass carafe as available in the Moccamaster Clubline series KB741 (available in black, white, & dark gray). As I mentioned in the earlier post, cleaning is VERY easy. If you want a coffee maker for the road like...

It seems to be more & more difficult to obtain this antique food. The mom & pop place here stopped ordering pork bellies unless I wanted to buy the entire case. I looked all over (phone) within a 100 miles. Finally I found them locally at the Mexican market. So, if there is a Mexican grocery in...

Kevin - I made your rub recipe a few days ago & used it on two pork butts which came out very tasty. I like this rub which is quite different than the Magic Dust I had been using. This one now moves to the front of the shelf. Thanks! Richard

Tom - I had a Freshroast roaster, but sent it back because it did not work well. I'm now using the I-Roast2 which works well but will not roast very much at a time (around 140g). Kevin - now I remember. It was: Boyd's Coffee Co. 19730 NE Sandy Blvd Portland, Oregon 97230 800-223-8211 Ron -...

Tom - what roaster you use? Do you not do that anymore? Richard

Hi Kevin! The Technivorm Moccamaster is 12-3/4" wide, 6" deep, and about 14" tall. Has a 1.25 liter capacity in the glass carafe. Real easy to clean. Richard

I don't remember where I got this recipe but it is from Lexington BBQ. Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 100 pounds med. chopped cabbage -- (1 lb.) 6 quarts ketchup -- (1/4 cup) 10...

Sean - I just had to 2nd that recommendation for the Technivorm Moccamaster. For decades I just used a Melita filter and did it all manually. Finally got my first coffee maker - the Technivorm Moccamaster. Excellent product. Sweet Marias was out of it, so I got it from a company in Portland, OR...

Here's more info about making bacon on a WSM: Making Bacon on a WSM There are several old threads at TVWBB concerning this. Richard

How about Just Conversation as it is not really Barbecuing. Richard

So little discussion on the Pork Front, let me opine about that noble creature, the pig. Was a time I could purchase pork bellies from a local grocer, but those days are gone unless I purchase an entire case! My family is clamoring for more homemade bacon, and what can I do? You got it...

Will - thanks for responding with Kansas City BBQ Sauce info. My sister-in-law has family in the KC area so that's how I received the KC sauces. I'll mention the Three Little Pigs sauce to her. Paul - will try the Arthur Bryant's sauce in the near future. Seems like I've seen it in some Florida...

For Christmas I was given a selection of BBQ sauces from Kansas City. They are each in 18 oz bottles. They are: Gates (original classic) Arthur Bryant's Hayward's Pit Only one I've tried (with WSM Boston Butt) is the Hayward's. Pretty good. Slight bit of heat to it. Have you had these sauces...

Josh wrote: "I'm not sure what I'm going to use it for.. any suggestions?" I've made this sauce and like it quite a bit. I think it goes well with pork loin, hamburgers, sweet potatoes. Heck, I'd probably like it on vanilla ice cream! Richard

Mmmmm. . . double good. Just made a batch using a Florida avocado, not the small Haas variety from California. A dash of homemade chipotle powder is an option to consider. Richard

Tom, Yes, the brine definitely helped keep the loin moist. It was a hit at my house last night including company. Maybe a rub or savory sauce would make it better. How do you think this brine would work on a brisket? Maybe decrease the sugar? Richard
