I have the Anova unit, and couldn't be more pleased with it. Very accurate temp control and extremely easy to set. Would I buy it again? You bet!

Looks great. Took me a couple of cooks under my belt to get confortable with the mini.
After it gets seasoned, I find it much easier to control and maintain the temp.

As others have said, get out the seeds and remove all the membrane.
If they are still too hot, soak split peppers overnight in sugar water. Don't know why, but they don't come out sweet.

I have two upright freezers outside under a shed. Also a fridge. Have not had any trouble with them in a couple of years, other than these dang hurricanes knocking out the power.
It gets warm here in South Louisiana, and the humidty stays fairly high also.
That's my new favorite cookbook too. You can make boudin out of pure pork, but that is not very traditional. I would eat any of that in a heartbeat.
Ethan, put andouille in gumbo, put tasso in beans and greens.

I cut 1" holes like the SJG. Made similar covers out of sheet aluminum. Works great. Sorry, no photos, will need to get a new camera one day, maybe.
