Quite often we post a method or recipe and sometimes it is our own creative work and sometimes it is an adaptation of the work of someone else.
For example I made some chicken celery sausage the other day and mentioned in here. I said that the recipe came from Nick's celery sausage on the sausage makers forum. I should have added a link: http://www.sausagemaker.com/nicksbaltim ... usage.aspx
If you go to the home page of The Sausage Maker: http://www.sausagemaker.com/
and click on favorite recipes: http://www.sausagemaker.com/ourfavoriterecipes.aspx
You open a fine page of new recipes.
I think that doing this will be good for this forum and a courtesy for the source. Those are just my thoughts.

Yes X2 on what he said. And being able to edit your post down the road would be nice too in case you need to change something in it that offends someone or you made a mistake sure would be nice instead of having to wait for a mod to change it for you. Just saying.

Thanks Ross- I have posted up a couple of different recipes on one forum only to have them show up on other forums long before I join that particular forum. Some have credited the original back to me and/or the original source forum.

One hombre went so far as to trying to pass it off as his own original recipe. I had a few polite words with the site's owner and he deleted said posting and allowed me to post up the recipe as the original owner.

Getting your recipe stole is almost a bad as someone trying to rustle your favorite calf critter!! Makes ya wanna find a short rope and a realllly tall tree. :twisted:
I thought I had a handle on life until one day the handle fell off.
