    pork shoulder fat content

    Hugho, I'm also a newbie on here. I started making sausages from pork butt in February. Since then I've probably made 50 - 60# of this stuff and it gets better each time. I've been lucky enough to have a little extra money to support my habit. Was very fortunate to come across two different...

    Frozen food....Really?

    I was just talking to mom & pop about their hunk of ice they have thawing. It was from a piece of brisket they bought LAST MARCH!! SMDH.

    Frozen food....Really?

    My mother inlaw asked dad to get her brisket out of the freezer to thaw so she can prep it for corned beef. When I saw this thing I just shook my head. What is it?, how long has it been in the freezer? Why not take the time to freeze it properly? All of their food in the freezer looks like...

    Aaah Houston, we've got a problem!

    Look at the original post. There's some sausage in there. My wife is upset that I'm paying so much attention to these pork butts. I must confess, I like big butts, I cannot lie!

    Aaah Houston, we've got a problem!

    Came back from local supermarket having a sale on their pork butts. .99 a pound! Already have 10 whole ones, 5 deboned and sliced up in the freezer now. Tried cramming in that last roast but it had to go inside the house. NEED TO MAKE MORE SAUSAGES. Life is good!

    Bacon - 2 ways

    Thirdeye, Thanks for the video. It was pretty neat to see the process for curing and smoking pork for bacon. I couldn't work there very long. I would be let go for eating all their profits. I'm going to look into finding some of Benton's bacon in my area. I wonder if they ship. Thanks...

    Σουβλάκια. . .Souvlakia (Greek Shish Kebab)

    I'm pretty new to this forum and I have to admit, That is one of the best, if not, THEE BEST history, presentation and pictures of someone's craft on here that I have come across. This is above and beyond mopping some sauce on a slab of meat and tossing it on a grill like I do. Your...

    Today’s smoke

    Hey neighbor!! Where abouts in MI? The food looks awesome. I would have to agree with an earlier poster. I'm not sure any of that would make it back into my freezer. Great job. Thanks for posting.

    Butts, Butts and more BUTTS!!!

    Pork Butt At Kroger

    tallbm, Now you tell me. I did EXACTLY what you recommended NOT to do. I brought home the nine, left them in a cooler on our deck,(it was 15 degrees outside most of that week). one by one, brought them inside, deboned and then cut into strips to be frozen in a vac seal bag. No worries. I...

    Pork Butt At Kroger

    OK, here's a head scratcher. You score this great deal at Kroger, and decide to replenish your stock on pork so you buy 8 bone in pork butt roasts. What do you do with the 8 roasts once their home? Freeze them whole, then at a later date, thaw, debone and grind for sausage one at a time...
