  1. I had a nice big Moose Roast given to me so I decided to filleted it open, stuffed it and roll it up in a Bacon weave and Cherry Wood smoke it. A little messy when it was time to carve it up but oh so good. Six big slices went into vacuum sealed bags for quick Sous vide reheats when desired.
  2. I remember him well John, I even had opportunity to train his daughter Sarah some years later in the Plate Mill cranes. Very nice young lady. I'm experimenting with a new coating on the reel seat, it's used on Mag Rims so I suspect (hope) that it is very durable. Thank you and yes, cross slide with a vertical riser.
  3. Thank you Sir. Yes the wire is just for hanging after clear coating. And the rod is a light 2 piece spinning rod, the reel seat and the fore grip were made to appear to be seamless in design.
  4. I was asked to step out of my comfort zone on a project unlike anything I have ever attempted, but with the help of a skilled artisan/carver/painting friend I'm well on my way to getting this custom fly in Brook Trout rod assembled.
  5. That's the brand I use both in bag and roll form.
  6. I've never had to test the limits Brian, eat gets eaten and shared pretty quickly.
  7. Worth every penny Brian. I vacuum pack many leftover meats and then rewarm in the sous vide Brian, never another rewarmed dry meat meal again.
  8. Ran the smoker for several hours again yesterday. One large Steelie from the Geen and 5 big ass Brookies form northern Kbec (all gifted ). Smoked with a mix of Cherry and Maple wood and twice brushed with Maple Syrup my friend Chef Shai made from trees she tapped at her family cottage. Almost 7 pounds worth vacuum packed this morning to share with friends.
  9. A nice big bone in (bone up) Cajun rub Pork Loin done in the smoker with Maple Wood chips. Smoked for 6 hours to 155* internal temp then covered and allowed to rest. Turned out perfect medium rare. Yielded me three 1+ inch slabs. And much to my delight my homemade Rhubarb Chutney was the perfect accompaniment to smoked Pork. Side (sad) note.....Damn, why didn't I roast the fresh Beets I have.
  10. Yes, but the lower area is all numbered zones are private.
  11. There is a public access ramp at the end of the Temagami access Rd.
  12. Another Wild Turkey Breast that had a 48 hour brine before being stuffed with Emmental Cheese and Sun Dried Tomatoes then wrapped in Bacon and Cherry wood smoked at 225* for 7 hours (165* internal temp) hit the dinner table last night. It was outstanding!
  13. I've read this morning that it may have been intentional as the red ship had lost helm control.
  14. The one I showed Brian was a brined wild Turkey breast stuffed with sun dried tomatoes, Prosciutto and Gruyere then Cherry wood smoked.
  15. Plastic Wrap as Brian showed is key to a good bacon weave wrap. I like the wrap it large enough to spin and twist the ends tight. Then chill to let it set up. To note, Brian was my inspiration to give it a go.
  16. Congratulations Brian, time to enjoy your well deserved retirement years.
  17. Got some good Summer Sausage drying out buddy, you in.
  18. How to get more than one meal out of a single boneless/skinless Chicken Breast. Beat it flat then stuff it with Sun Dried Tomatoes, Jalapeno Peppers and Cream Cheese and roll it up in a Bacon weave. Serve it with Lemon Butter Asparagus and Butter Garlic smashed Tater. Delicious!
  19. I can fix that Brian, I have some very dry cured Summer Sausage in the fridge.
  20. I don't by pre filled pods John, I grind my own beans fresh and fill reusable pods. The same coffee is fare better in the Bodum than the Keurig.
  21. Hate my Keuring other than it's convenience, the coffee is just so so, I don't think the water gets hot enough. I like my Bodum and when I had one, the old stove top percolator from my camping gear made the best coffee.
  22. I've been drinking my coffee black for 40 years, Tim's is the worst for sure, I haven't drank there swill in some 30 years. In fact I've not had a coffee from anywhere outside my home for a very long time.
  23. You and me both.
  24. Thank you Sir. Sadly no I did not and with that I'm now regretting it. Next time.
