Looking good. Lots of real-estate in that grill. @Timmy would have a field day with the space in there.
Would be so cool, but $3800ā€¦. Ya ,no, not for me.
 
Just a few more 780s lol

More like 5 of these, including a few hundred pounds of pellets. :ROFLMAO:

In all seriousness Iā€™ve pondered whether it would be a better idea to my another smallerish one instead of upgrading to a bigger one one dayā€¦ā€¦that way I can do multiple temps at the same time

Having 2 Traegers is great when one is tied up doing a long time cook like brisket or pulled pork. The other one is available for other things like appetizers or sausages for lunch!

Thatā€™s what I did, works great. BUT I wish I had another 780.
 
Cooking a big ol' chunk of pork loin tonight. Rubbed with EVOO and dusted with Meat Church All Purpose rub. This is so easy. Slap on the Traeger on high for 30 minutes to sear it, then drop the temp to 350 till it hits 140 internal and let it rest to come up to 145 internal before slicing and serving with raspberry chipotle dipping sauce. Yum.

I haven't done Beef jerky before. Nwver been a huge fan of it. But the GF likes it, so on goes some keto Beef jerky. Eye of round hand cut because I was too lazy to break out Dexter last night. Marinated overnight and on at 8 AM
Testing the low range on the Yoder, temperature is set to 150Ā°F kn the grill, it seems to be running just above, 154Ā°F.. I will bump it up to 170Ā°F in a while.
I have some St. Louis style side ribs for dinner so it's going to be a full day for mešŸ™‚šŸ‘

Edit to add:
any tips on knowing when to take it off so I don't make shoe leather or have something that is too rubbery?

Keep testing it until it is where you want it. Just donā€™t eat it all before itā€™s done!šŸ¤£

Being a non-jerky eater....hard to know what is done. I just hate the stuff from the store that is so hard and dry. But also got some from Costco, Kirkland brand, that was too soft in texture. I didn't enjoy that either.
Maybe I just don6like jerky, lol. I will keep N eye on it for texture
Temps are golding good at 150Screenshot_20220507-093721_FireBoard.jpg

Meat dark, flexible and tugs apart with stringy feeling.
Most results comes AFTER the jerky is done, if you want dry jerky then just keep out and cool and open air overnight.
If you want moister jerky, then VAC bag and refrig... I have made too moist jerky this way but if you like it this way then VAC it.
 
Just finished smoking some bacon wrapped drumsticks (first try) and a few turkey legs. I figure anything wrapped with bacon will turn out good. ;)

Maybe we need to clear the air. Iā€™m feeling somewhat trolled and picked upon. I posted an innocuous post commenting on this thread some time ago without a picture and received an admonishing mail notice from you and then you removed my post. I simply commented on someone elseā€™s post in a positive manner. Imagine my surprise to see you post here sans photo??? I feel you owe me an apology and you need to remove your ā€œtroll filterā€ moniker as it is itself intended to be a troll device. Iā€™m more than willing to move on once thatā€™s done. You need to follow your own rules though. Especially if you are going to admonish and punish others for actions you engage in yourself.

I think itā€™s a coin flip whether you will do whatā€™s right or just censor this post and my sincere comments. I post this publicly to encourage the former rather than the latter. šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø
