Vonda,

I just saw you question about cooking on the Chubby. I just cook at my normal burning temp of around 350F or so. I just check it from time to time to monitor the progress. If I want to slow the cooking down I place steel washers or nuts on the top to add some space between the stove and pot. So far it's working out well. I made a pork roast this past weekend. Enjoy! :D

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I think it looks pretty good. And I'm guessing that your taste buds think it's a wonderful stove ! :yes:

Scrapple is a Pennsylvania Dutch thing. Also known as panhaus. Its a pork based product. When butchering a hog the bones, head n edible organs are cooked off. The meat is then picked off the bones and ground then added back to broth and thickened. I use cornmeal and flour. Seasoned with salt and pepper and cooked till thick. Then put in pans to set n cool. To cook its cut into slices and fried crisp.

Centuries ago they did similar with the English landlord's unwanted parts of sheep, combined with oats and spices, and it became a national dish of Scotland called haggis. I'll take haggis over mutton any day ! :yes:

It all arises from the wisdom of, "waste not, want not" ! ;)

Time to can the ‘kraut. The sauerkraut has been fermenting in the crock for three weeks now. I got 21 pint & half jars.

Filled up the range with nut Blaschak and just waiting for it to come to a boil.

Welp, bought yet another stove, it’s a sickness I swear, 1907 hub heater #17 it’s missing the grates and the base for the back pipe but the nickel is perfect
