    More Columbian Santarosano Chorizo (St. Rose Sausage)

    Skipping the wine is a mistake. Although not a game changer, the wine brings an earthy tone to the sausage overall, definitely worth not skipping. I use Merlot and Chianti wine in many sausage recipes, no binding issues and no negative effects at all.

    Pepper on Bacon

    Looks excellent. That cut shows you have sausage savy, and the recipe shows you have good taste. Nice work. I’m still tuned in for the final.

    HAM.... easy peasy... no mess.... DISCLAIMER.. MONEY...

    First pork shoulder

    Looks great to me. In the future if you want soft pulled meat watch the IT and once you hit 200F you are close, from there probe for tender with a bamboo skewer or similar. When done the probe will push in all over the meat with almost no resistance, think of pushing the skewer into a jar of...

    Those look delicious to me. Add some nutmeg and caraway and you’d have a Kabanosy. Very delicious dried meat stick. Nice work and stay after it.
