Take a look at Traeger grills. I'm probably going to get one with my tax refund. I have a couple of friends with them and I haven't eaten a bad piece of meat from them.

This is the one I am considering

Also if you know how to use charcoal you can slow cook/smoke on a Weber kettle grill.

Thanks for the tip!

"Did some steaks too, but not going to post pictures out of shame.  I got caught up kicking an 8 year olds ass in HALO (I might have that backwards) and forgot about them.  Was going to pull off the smoker at 110 and then sear to finish.  Instead pulled them off at 145."

Did someone say MEAT?

Speaking of piggies, took this little feller to see my friend Jack the Butcher this morning.

347# of porklisious goodness.

Poor guy "almost" looks too happy for him to become such delicious goodness.

Those were in 75-150# on the hoof range. I had planned to do one like that again but the pig for that project had other ideas and decided to die rather unexpectedly one night. I'll probably wait till early fall to get any more bacon seeds. I prefer feeding them out in cooler weather. I started with this batch in July and that puts butcher time during peak deer season when the slaughter house I use is swamped and won't accept anything but deer or "emergencies".

 I picked up 2 "pig in a poke" that turned out to have some potbelly ancestry so I don't expect them to get much over 150 by the time I butcher @ 6 or so months. That' why I asked.
   I'm picking up three this weekend that will be butchered early July. That makes them easy to scrape but hard to cool. the last two were butchered during a cold snap in December. Made the water to dip them tough to keep @ temperature.
 I do my own butchering from dip to freezer (with some help from sons & neighbors)  so I don't depend on a slaughter house but I need to put together some kind of large cooler.

I could DIY it but I wouldn't do nearly as good a job as the pros. I also don't really have an effective way to dispose of the "residue".  And, I dont have the tools to process it, slicer, grinder and such. Worth it to me to drop off the animal and bring it home cured, smoked, sliced and vaccum packed.

There's a bunch of folks here that feel the same way. My Dad was a butcher & I feel like I'm carrying on the family tradition. I'm not a butcher by trade but I enjoy it and @ a dollar a pound hanging weight I'll enjoy it some more.
 I've been doing deer for years have been collecting equipment for what seems like forever but the curing and smoking is all new to me.

Last weekend:  Brisket, jalapeno poppers, and sausage stuffed poblano peppers.







Served the brisket with smoked/roasted garlic mashed yukon gold potatoes and sauteed green beans with bacon.  There were no leftovers.
