  @jonathon
  I picked up brisket at the Kroger Chain grocery already for $1.99 a lb. on sale. Walmart has some very nice full brisket with the round for $3.94 a lb. I have checked several butcher shops and they normally stock packer 6 full briskets with the round on it to a box @ $4.99 to $5.99 per pound or most butcher shops would sell you a individual brisket. You did not have to buy a whole case.

  @stanca Yeah, I have had the bison epic bar a few times, it is very tasty for sure. I found out that they used to vegetarians or vegans (can’t remember which) from a podcast I listen to, they didnt find being vegetarian or vegan healthy for them so they did some experimenting and created Epic. It’s a pretty interesting story, vegetarianism and veganism is just like anything else, it works for some people but not all, just like Paleo or Keto!

  I feel great on my Keto (modified!) Diet, less inflammation in my joints and I dropped a stubborn 10 lb that just wouldn’t come off with anything else. My appetite control is also far better and I don’t crave bad food anywhere near as often!

  Glad someone is trying to keep the old recipes alive, it’s important!

  @Paramedic1 Well keep going for them, small is better than nothing! I could see an argument about Bear being a nuisance at this point. In Kansas you can shoot as many coyotes as you want year round!

  Thanks for the info. I tried your suggestion of the ice bath, it worked great. Being Montana, I just had to reach outside for some snow to add to the water! Thanks again, most appreciated.

  Thanks Austin. I think this is going to have to be tried in a Dutch oven out camping, can’t wait, but oh crap, I don’t have the shaker spices on hand, need to get them ordered. So I guess I will have to wait a bit, darn.

  @KSLonghorn Welcome to the community Mark!
  We love using the Black Olive as well. I love the combination of using wood pellets with a ceramic grill!

  @hambone

  Our best selling and customer favorite for hams is our Country Brown Sugar Cure. I would personally highly recommend this as well! It will make fantastic hams.

  For bacon, it depends on if you want to use a dry rub or use a liquid brine. Our best selling dry rub for bacon is our Dry Rub Bacon Cure, but our most popular bacon cure overall is the Blue Ribbon Maple Bacon Cure. Either one is fantastic, just depends on which method you would rather follow.

  Check out our recipes page for our general instructions and a suggested cook cycle as well, but if you have any other questions, let us know how we can help!
