The only thing I don't like about bacon is that the cure almost always has a fair amount of sugar. I've used bacon fat and it seems to work okay,...
Did you use baking soda or lye in the water? I've boiled them in plain water and thought they were fine, just not as purty.
Be careful. It can escalate quickly.
Finally got done with Christmas here. We had to replace our microwave, so we decided it was time to treat ourselves to a matching refrigerator...
If I ever come across anything really rusty, I'll be chewing your ear about the electrolysis process :yes:
A lye bath works really well. You can buy sodium hydroxide at Ace, under the Rooto brand drain opener. Mix the one pound bottle with five gallons...
I see what you are saying. It probably doesn't peak as high a lot of other stoves. If it's an Ultra with side shields and convection deck, it...
Read that again as constant output for twelve hours, not peak output. 'Slotta heat. My king would burn for hours at 600+ on top, even hotter on...
I think a 16" bar is perfect on that saw. The only reason I would run 3/8 is if I had a spool and spun my own. You already have .325, so use it....
Got one last week for $2.99, and this one is prime. Cooking it for thanksgiving to go with the little turkey they give me at work. I'm a little...
That much class A makes a big difference. Do you know what brand it is?
It was discontinued it for a reason.
Something else I discovered, for my setup anyway, is that the ceiling fan in the stove room kinda creates a door of sorts covering the 5' wide...
This is from the bag I just opened. I actually put the big one back in the bag because I'm just cooking a few steaks. [ATTACH]
Trying to move wood stove heat with ductwork can be the proverbial exercise in futility. The air in the stove room might be 80 degrees, but it's...
I have a 511a. It's nice for straightening things out again after filing a chain a bunch of times, or fixing the occasional faux pas. But I could...
Maybe that's my problem. I'm a big dude with little hands.
I have an iPad that I too find very awkward. Typing is much easier on the much smaller iPhone or a normal computer keyboard. It's just too big,...
Always had good luck with individually wrapped American cheese slices. Only time I ever buy that stuff is to trap a cat.
I'm pretty sure I've never seen a #7. Nice. My sister in law brought me an unmarked Wagner chicken fryer a couple of weeks ago, to clean up and...
