    canning venison

    Could I put a whole chunk of venison, like for a roast that will fit in a wide mouth jar, instead of cubes or slices ? Then slice it up later after it is canned.

    Polish meat

    Szynka, I think you are right. My ancestors did come from Boronow/Katowice/Lubliniec in the province of Silesia. Thanks very much for the info.

    Polish meat

    Sorry I can't remember, I was just a little kid at the time. I don't think it was, we ate mostly fresh sausage.

    Polish meat

    My parents are Polish and I remember them calling a sausage that is pronounced like Vushta, I do not know the Polish or English spelling , but that is what it sounded like. Does anyone have any info on this meat ? I would like to find out more about it and maybe make some !

    peppreoni

    Knotfree, That sounds like the right spices. I'll give it a try next time, it may be awhile though, before I get a chance to do some more.

    peppreoni

    Made a 5# batch of Venison/beef/pork pepperoni with LEM Backwoods seasonings, turned out very good, everybody liked it. To me it could have more of the pepperoni taste. What seasonings could I add to give it more of that pepperoni taste ?

    Basic Brisket Smoke

    I have a 12 lb., before trimming , brisket for my first smoked brisket. I would like to do it all at once, but this a lot of meat for just the wife and me. Is it good freeze the leftovers, or should I just smoke half and freeze the rest to smoke latter?

    Too Salty

    Thanks for all the replies ! The equilibrium looks like it'll take a little figering , but I'm shure I can figure it out, It wont be as bad, once I get going along.

    Too Salty

    I wet cured my venison ham for 5 days,  then slow smoked for 5hrs untill IT hit 160,  Still nice and moist good taste, but too salty. What did I do wrong to make it too salty ? Did I brine it too long ? Would 3 days have been long enough ? How can I now remove some of the salt out of the Ham ?

    Venison ham? Sort of...

    I'm planning on doing a small 2-3lb venison  ham. I have some instacure #1, it says to use 5tbs. for 5lbs of meat, this is like for sausage and such. Would that be the same in a brine for soaking and injecting ? That is my main concern on how much instacure to use.
