Had one and got rid of it...we do too much seafood on the grill...traeger doesn't get hot enough to grill fish...its 1.5 to the coast for me, so we always have fresh fish.
I like the little box smoker..it works well. I went to a dehydrator for jerky..I can get way more jerky in my 9 tray...
Just pulled these out of the smoker...I set it to 200 with hickory and apple wood. After 2hrs I check them, they are pulled when internal temp is 165. Check with meat probe.
These will cool for a couple hours in the fridge...then I will seperate, vac pac/freeze. Should be cooled enough by...
Had some elk jerky I made this time last year in the stand on Sat. Vac pac and freeze it will last over a year easy.
I do a lb in bag...do the same with summer sausage...works great.

It's not a secret that why a brought up...obviously from your comments you agree. From a R standpoint it is a significant hurdle to limit NR opportunity.
In 2020 56.3 m generated by license revnue 77%/ 43.6M come from non resident tag/pp sales...17%/9.6M was generated by R tag sales. Another...
Have you spent any time in WY other than hunting know anybody there?....any talk of raising R tags prices they come unglued. $250 would only be an approx 5x increase.
Got buddy there that qualifies for the pioneer/heritage program. He pays $35, I pay $800/2k same tag. He has no problem with NR...
You are correct NR are not stakeholders. I wasn't disagree with you...NR are just the funding mechanism.
