Jonathon 4 lbs pork with bear meat and 5 lbs. with the goose… First time making bear, so I would go 3lbs. Next time.

Thanks Jonathon. I was actually in Redding CA which is 8 hours north. Weather was hot, bear was huge, and it was all I could do get it chunked up and run into town and get sausage made. There are some decent butchers in that area but many of them will not handle bear, so I didn’t have much choice. That is actually what spurred me to take up sausage making, I figured I could do better than that butcher, and it turned out I can!

Parksider I might have to do a small batch of something this week to test out my ‘sous vide’ cooker. Since I quit drinking beer (insert sad face) my brewing setup has sat mostly idle. I’m excited to fire it up!

mikeihuntr Great Job! wow! what a great looking smoking cabinet! looks like somebody has some wood shop experience. Your going to have many delicious smoked products for years to come off that bad boy. Cheers and thanks for sharing.
