I came across this:

http://www.drybagste...ak-in-house.php

after following some threads from the 'green-egg' thread.

Has anybody tried it? Is this just a plastic bag that's semi-permeable to air and moisture?

they seem somewhat pricey.

I did a search here and could not come up with anything.

thanks. thats just the type of article Ive been looking for. Apparently there is an 'insert' they sell that allows you to use regular vaccum sealers.

PB: BTW: I recall something about your aging meat in a post your made a while ago. I lost all my book-marks and would appreciate a ref back to your work!
