    Snack ham expeirament !

    That all looks fantastic. I'm a big fan of back bacon and I'm sure you will be too once you've made your own as well. I never thought to make snack sticks out of ground ham, but I have one thawing right now to go into the cure tomorrow so I'm definitely going to try that. Good stuff.

    Got 2 new knives, here's a picture

    I can totally relate. I'm a self taught cook with a food service trailer that I take to a few festivals a year in the summer, so I have no business owning the Wusthof knives that I have. But, for the most part, I do the majority of my cooking at home and the knives that I use in my rig are...

    Sweet Christ! You can lop the leg off a swine in on fell swoop with that sumbitch. Tell you what...if you need a job done that requires something of that caliber, save yourself some money and pick up a briar axe for like 40 bucks. That way you could cut your brontosaurus steaks then head out...

    Drying Flat Pancetta in Casing

    Has anyone ever tried drying flat Pancetta in any variety of casing? I currently have a slab curing and want to try slicing a chunk off of it off, stuffing it into a 60mm fibrous casing and drying it in my homemade chamber (when it's finished curing, of course). Just wondering if anyone has...

    Nice knives. I only have one Dalstrong, a 10-inch breaking knife that was a gift. I like it a lot and it holds an edge better than my Wusthofs.

    Noob

    I should have been more clear. I no longer operate the business but kept my rig (it's a trailer) and plan to outfit it for personal use. I'm in the process of removing the fryer and flat top and putting a smoker under the hood. There is also a curing chamber and a small cold smoker that I...

    Calibrating Inkbird Humidity Controller.

    I read somewhere that putting the sensor in rice would remove residual moisture (kind of like back in the day when you dropped your cell phone in the toilet). I tried it, put the sensor back in the chamber the next day and I only had to compensate by around 4% when I calibrated the unit against...

    Hey everyone, I'm new to the forum and am from the Northeastern US. I previously operated a food truck and have recently began curing, smoking an drying meats. I am in the process of converting my mobile kitchen into a processing/curing/smoking/drying rig and I am interested in reading about...

    Calibrating Inkbird Humidity Controller.

    I had to calibrate my new Inkbird humidity controller right out of the box as well. It was off by 13% so I put the sensor in a jar of rice overnight and that closed the gap a little. It may be worth a shot.
