Je-Ne-Sais-Quoi Jambalaya: on a Wood Fired Rocket Stove
This is how I cook my locally famous jambalaya. In this video, I do it for the first time on my rocket stove from Patriot Metal Works & Smokers, and in my 5 gallon Cajun Classic Dutch Oven, using three varieties of oak wood. It’s a long process so this is a long video.

I was gonna say that is some lean looking meat,...but less fat makes it easier to process in the grinder too. It does help to keep the parts cold, that is why butcher shops are at a max of 50 degrees. Not a meat grinder out there that works well when warm.

    Thanks for the review! I would recommend chilling of the cubed meat. 20-30 minutes in the freezer should be enough to firm it up. The benefit to doing this is it will be easier for the grinder blade to cut through the meat fibers instead of getting gummed up at the blade. This will also minimize heat buildup which will cause fat to melt in the auger chamber, blade and die (not good). For the small amounts (2-3 lbs) you are processing at one time, this should be good enough. My $0.02!

    I need to make some sun tea. I now know why I saved my gallon size pickle jar. Do quart size containers brew faster than gallon size? I read that you have to be careful with bacteria, but apparently that is not an issue. You made me laugh…We used cubic feet per long ton for density when determining cargo stowage factors on American flag vessels, so our brains thought in cubic feet when measuring volumes. We had a bad habit of continuing to use cubic feet when using metric tons on foreign flag ships. I knew better and made adjustments, but many did not. There was a 10% difference in the two tons, so the difference usually did not matter because the ships would usually reach their load lines before using up their volumes. However, when talking about 40,000 mtons and the ships trim, 10% was a huge difference. The foreign ship captains did not like it. When I started working ships small calculators, except for Texas Instruments, were not being made yet, so I used a slide ruler for quick calculations.

      @@rickcormier9160 Wow that’s impressive math. I make my tea in a smaller quart or liter size for a few of reasons. One that really all I need for a day. It takes up less room in my fridge (ice box). The family size tea bags are designed to make a quart or a liter at a time. I would need four bags , or one of those big Red Diamond bags for a gallon. I have to fish the bags out of a gallon jar with a slotted spoon or tongs, as the gallon bags don’t have strings and the strings on the four quart bags are useless in a large gallon jar. It is easier to pour to from the small quart jar into a glass. If I’m making tea to serve to others, (company/guests) I do make a gallon and put it n a pitcher. Since I’m the only one who drinks unsweet I iced tea, The 1000ml/ 32oz is just fine for me each day.
