Bad City Ham?
Thank you. Injecting didn’t cross my mind, but it makes a lot of sense. My initial plan was to put the ham in the refrigerator, but the cooler became a backup plan after the brine bag failed. I was shocked how quickly the temperature rose and how difficult it was to regulate. Lesson learned...- hickorysmokes

Bad City Ham?
I did not inject the curing solution. I also had trouble regulating the temperature of the cooler and the brine temperature rose the the upper fifties about day four before I brought it back down with dry ice.- hickorysmokes

Bad City Ham?
Does the color of the fat around the artery indicate this ham is bad? I just completed my first wet/city cured ham followed by hot smoking. The ham was then frozen. I followed this recipe, adjusted to the weight of the ham, and wet cured in a cooler...- hickorysmokes
