I had these in brine since mid december. I usually take them out after two weeks, but with holidays and all...

Under a fan before cold smoking

Have a long queue of meats waiting their turn to the (cold) smoker. My pit is not that big. In cure or brine : backfat, hocks, loins. The bones above drying. Belly for bacon started smoking yesterday.

Should you need any convincing:
- bones make good soup (better than just meat)
- feels good when the only things from the pig you toss are the nasty bits
- you don't need to sweat scraping the meat off the bones

I'll say it again, I'm amazed at what all you make from nose to tail!

Nice work for sure!

If you can smoke meat you can smoke bones (with meat).

This is not the first dish with bones. Missus made a beans and smoke bone soup already. Tasty, no pics.

Now I am making kale and smoke bone soup.

Thickened with yoghurt and sour cream.
