    Boar Ham (first attempt) w/Qview

    I love hunting hogs...some mistakes I've made smoking wild boar.  The main one being cooking to long trying to tenderize it.  Like eating styrofoam it was so dry.  Looking at your results I think you found the balance.  It looks moist.  I'd like to know how tender it was.

    Whole wild hog smoke W/Q-view

    I recently killed a small wild hog and I am going to cook him whole this 4th of July weekend.  Dressed and cleaned he weighed in at 19 pounds.  I'm going to crack the ribs and flatten him out to cook and put some vidalia onions and mushrooms in the flattened cavity.  My plan it to cook him to...

    Rabbit

    It wasn't greasy at all. I've had wild rabbit before, but this was the first time I've smoked it. It was tender and juicy and delicious!! I think the brine helped a lot!!

    Rabbit

    I just pulled the rabbit off the smoker at 167 degrees and wrapped it. Here's a photo! I'll be pulling the meat after it rests!!

    Rabbit

    I'm finally able to find the time to pull the rabbit out of the freezer and smoke it today. I brined it and just threw it on along with some split chicken breasts and a pork loin. I plan to cook the rabbit to about 165 and wrap it. We'll see how it turns out!! I'll post some Q/view of the results!

    First attempt at sausage!! W/Q-view

    I did have a little problem with the fat rendering like that, but it wasn't too bad. Thanks for the advice. We did rinse the casings, but did not soak them for any period of time. We'll try that next time and maybe linking them as well.

    First attempt at sausage!! W/Q-view

    That is something I plan to invest in in the near future. For now we have a great deal of sausage to go through and hogs to hunt, so I'm in no real rush right now. My buddy has the grinder and I will have the stuffer. Sounds like a good split!! BTW thanks for the links!!!

    First attempt at sausage!! W/Q-view

    A cow?? That's funny. It felt like a cow when were were lifting it onto the ATV rack. I about had to go to the doctor so he could tell me to turn my head and cough!!!!

    First attempt at sausage!! W/Q-view

    I have eaten some and I think I would go with less fat next time. I think we used 3 lbs of fat to seven lbs of lean pork. In retrospect we should have done maybe 1.5 lbs of fat to seven lbs of meat. This was our first time and it was a learning experience. We've already talked about tweaking the...

    First attempt at sausage!! W/Q-view

    It is usually darker in color and richer and sweeter in taste. The taste can vary according to the time of year and their recent diet, but all in all...I much prefer it to farm raised any day of the week and twice on Sunday!!!
