Cover and fridge for 24-28 hours.

The SLB chubs are going to get a 50 hang time at 80* no smoke. This time will get the FRM to ferment and give the Tang you have in the PA Dutch LB and SLB bologna. After the hang i will PID the smoker to 90* with 7-8 hours of smoke.

I think Nepas stepped back in time and did the Multiplicity thing - There could actually be dozens of them running around
 
The smoke on the SLB is done and they passed the squeeze test.

Now hanging in the fridge for 2-3 days to darken and loose some moisture.

Taste...100% better than store bought. I will make the SLB again.

Very nice Leb bologna, Nepas!

I think the smaller chub size is ideal.

After having just spent $8-9/pound for the stuff here locally—I do look forward to attempting what you've done here.
