I just had this vision of someone looking at you and saying Jesus Christ, Davis!

Well that's happened to 'ME' many many times through the years---but it would be much funnier if my youngest brother 'had' been named Jesus Christ Davis--

I was 16 years old before I knew my name was Tc, up till then I thought it was “That Damn Tc”

I have not been keeping up with the forum.

I like to age my smoked cheese at least 2 weeks before trying. The longer you wait the better it is, recently I opened one that I smoked last February. The vacuum seal and saran wrap both work well for storage.

The little stainless mesh smoke tubes work pretty well. https://www.amazon.com/MAZE-N-Pellet.../dp/B00CS6YFIC I have an fancy home made cold smoke generator that works of an aquarium air pump, but most of the time I use the smoke tube because of the simplicity of it.

I will try to have patience with the cheese. i have it wrapped tight in saran wrap.

New years day dinner is now on the smoker. The temp probe seems to be working now...

It was because of my father that from the ages of seven to fifteen, I thought that my name was Jesus Christ and my brother, Russell, thought that his name was Dammit. "Dammit, will you stop all that noise?" And, "Jesus Christ, sit down!" One day, I'm out playing in the rain, and my father yelled, "Dammit will you get back in here!" I said, "Dad, I'm Jesus Christ!"

I hope that you enjoy the online spice mix. I also hope that you enjoy the Sweet Italian Sausage recipe that I sent you. I dedicated that recipe to (Frank Magnaghi) Both of Frank's parents immigrated from Italy and to have Frank give me the compliment on my recipe like he did was really appreciated.

Here in the states, breakfast sausage usually is made with a smaller diameter casing than things like Italian Sausage, Bratworth etc. Your kit says 23 mm collagen casing so that would be just shy of an inch, I usually use a 28 to 35 mm natural hog casing but tend to use the larger.

Have fun and be sure to post some pictures--maybe during and after?
