1949man

Hello, my name is Reinhard. I am a retired meat cutter after 35 years on the job. Love my family, friends, hunting, fishing, cooking, grilling, smokin, and making sausage. My best times are in the outdoors and hanging around my smoker. I was born In Germany back in 1949. Came to this great country as an immigrant in the late 50's with my family. We settled in Duluth, Minnesota. I went to Duluth Central High School. After High School i worked for a short while with odd jobs before entering the US Army. Spent 3 years in the Army and returned home to Duluth. I worked at a salt company and the Duluth Steel Plant until it closed down. At that time I moved to the Twin Cities and found work in a meat market and then moved on as a full fledged meat cutter for over 35 years, working for Cubs the majority of the time. I'm married and have two wonderful daughters and 4 grandchildren. I have been making sausage for over 40 years now and love to make sausage we all know and some special batches I've made up over the years. I have cooked all my life and love to use the smoker and my grill. I have hunted and fished the Arrowhead region of Mn. most of my life and have covered the area pretty well. I hope to share what I know and have experienced both in the cooking area and the outdoor area on this site. Thanks for looking. Reinhard
