Doing fine.  Still vertical and above ground. The St Louis are bigger boned and meatier. Will likely take either more time, a higher temp, or a little of both.  You should find some hints and tips in the meat section, or under the SI3.  Try the search feature, top right of the page.
 
Watched the lo carb video. I anticipated something with tofu. Glad you stuck with the beef.  And using the cheese instead of the bread is a nice and unique touch.
 
Work blocked this forum lol, you guys are under newsgroup/forums classification and listed as suspicious by a large net monitoring program made for large businesses. 
 
Divot should check how this site is listed and get it tied to food retail/business related.  Being under newsgroups/forum without the rep of something like Reddit gets you blocked by most software quick fast.
 
Sometimes it is the server service that a forum uses.  If that server service has hosted a bad site, anything coming from that server can be blocked.

Thanks, Trip!  Never heard this before, but we'll sure look into it!

It has something to do with how search engines categorize your site, you may want to talk to your server hoster about it.  I am not sure how easy it is to change it or how quick it is for filter programs to change the categorization.  It's not something you can address in the SMF options I don't think, I think it's more how search engine bots crawl the site and how they determine the content of the site.

I'm in training tomorrow, but will be all over it on Friday.

Nice!  Thanks Ben!  Not sure if it's something we can fix quickly, but sure would be nice to figure-out how to get indexed differently.  We may smoke Spam, but we're certainly NOT Spam! ;)

Smoked SPAM--BRILLIANT!
 
I’m back in. Have checked a couple of times on my previous posts. So here’s an update. My Smoker joined the family with my Traeger and Blackstone.

My 5D Wi-Fi is ready, seasoned, did a trial smoke on some summer sausage and 1st attempt at snake sticks. Yesterday did my first programed step smoke on Summer Sausage Snack Sticks for Christmas gifts.  Wife’s idea to do instead of tubes. Using sheep casings, easier for my wife to eat, but did a little bit with collagen to see the difference.  All went well. The step smoke worked great. Was going to cold smoke with Bella but had issues.  Put some hickory chunks inside and it worked fine. Will attempt to post some pictures. Will do a new topic about getting the Bella to stay lit.

Great looking sticks Craig. There is another fella having difficulty with keeping the Bella lit and there are those with no issues. A conundrum.  There is a competing, well known cold smoker that has a coil spring inside.  I guess that is to help with air. Don't know for sure.
 
Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind.  I may empty it out and put in a combo of pellets and little wood chips from the bag they sent with the smoker and Bella.
